And it is a very important thing to be and do, if not the most important 'cause how you interpret a story can then make the difference. So it is a very powerful thing to be. And when misused, it's very sad.

More quotes by Angelina Jolie
~Sometimes, when I want to take on the world, I try to remember that it's just as important to sit down and ask my son how he's feeling or talk to him about life.~
Angelina Jolie
We need the political will, and that often comes from the will of the people. So if celebrities or personalities can help to educate the people - not influence them, not tell them (what to do) - just tell them the truth about what's happening and let them form their own opinion, that will strengthen them and they will push their politicians.
Angelina Jolie
I listened to a lot of tapes of British theatre actresses and tried to learn from them. As Americans, we don't have such a gift with language.
Angelina Jolie
There's people constantly asking you for something on set, so the multi-tasking of motherhood transfers very well to being a director. And I think you're compassionate.
Angelina Jolie
This has been my life for many years one role feeds the other. It is a joy to be an artist, but it doesn't mean very much unless that work is somehow useful in some way and contributes to others.
Angelina Jolie
I wonder why guys mistreat and disrespect girls. But then they expect life to hand them a good woman when they're older and ready to settle down?
Angelina Jolie
That just sounds so funny, A-list. Really, I'm a mom, and that's how I'm going to be all my life.
Angelina Jolie
I felt beautiful when I was in Cambodia for Tomb Raider. I was sweaty, and my hair was matted and all over the place. And I was happy and hot and accomplishing a lot and running around, and I could feel my heart beating, and I felt beautiful.
Angelina Jolie
I had a lovely experience once in Africa working with the U.N. when a president of a country met me about refugee issues and said ‘What do you do?’ I said ‘I‘m an actor.’ He replied ‘I heard that was a very difficult job and might not be the smartest job to do.’ It was lovely.
Angelina Jolie
On the superficiality of the industry: We are setting an example of what we think is beautiful and you really want to put that much make up on me?
Angelina Jolie
Usually all my tattoos came at good times. A tattoo is something permanent when you've made a self-discovery, or something you've come to a conclusion about.
Angelina Jolie
I want to take time to understand life. I want to travel. I want to be a better person, a better Mom. I want to do something good with my life.
Angelina Jolie
I think every teenager is a hero. When we are young we feel so much pain. Go to school is like going to war, people let you down all the time. Sometimes it's very, very difficult to stay strong, but you have to.
Angelina Jolie
I think a woman is sexy when she's in nice clothes, flattering clothes. I don't think that being half-dressed in little half-tops... I don't find that sexy.
Angelina Jolie
There's something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate your life now.
Angelina Jolie
I think we should try to be responsible and educate ourselves. I'm simply doing that and traveling, learning first hand, and seeing first hand what's going on.
Angelina Jolie
If we cannot end the conflict, we have an inescapable moral duty to help refugees and provide legal avenues to safety.
Angelina Jolie
I always work with refugees and I think they are the most amazing people and it's a privilege to spend time with them, so I will always.
Angelina Jolie
I 've been married so much in my life that I never really had lovers, so it's been a fun time. Hopefully the men are enjoying it as well.
Angelina Jolie
I love great journalism. I appreciate it. I love good news stories. I love great books. I love great articles. I appreciate them so much, and they've been part of my education as a woman.
