I wanna better understand the world I live in, and I wanna be able to learn how to be more effective... I wanna learn and I wanna listen.
Angelina Jolie
It is wonderful to hear of the relief efforts that are finally coming to New Orleans and the rest of the region, but as well all know, it is simply not going to be enough.
Angelina Jolie
I know my children will never have to say, 'Mom died of ovarian cancer.'
Angelina Jolie
Not many people know this about me, but I'm a natural blonde. My hair went from light blonde naturally to a darker kind of blonde. My mother dyed my hair dark when I was a child, as I loved the look then. So I'm basically a natural blonde.
Angelina Jolie
The great thing about having a bunch of kids is that they just remind you that you're the person who takes them to go poop. That's who you are!
Angelina Jolie
I don't think the money people in Hollywood have ever thought I was normal, but I am dedicated to my work and that's what counts.
Angelina Jolie
I became an actress because my mom wanted me to become an actress. It took me until my mid-30s to realize I actually didn’t. I actually wanted to write and direct and be more involved in politics and humanitarian issues.
Angelina Jolie
Because I am a bad girl, people always automatically think that I am a bad girl. Or that I carry a dark secret with me or that I'm obsessed with death. The truth is that I am probably the least morbid person one can meet. If I think more about death than some other people, it is probably because I love life more than they do.
Angelina Jolie
I personally feel like, if you're watching a film about war, you should get a sense of what it's really like.
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.
Angelina Jolie
Our family may seem extraordinary in some magazines or something, but at home it's not. We're really just a very loving family. We're very close, and we don't read magazines. We just kind of go to work and come home. We try to keep a sense of reality into their lives. What's truly real, not Hollywood real.
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
I notice that my characters go out to dinner and have fun and take these great trips, but I spend so much time on their lives, I don’t have much of a personal life of my own. I have to sort of remember to fill out that little notebook 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
It's the greatest thing that ever happened in my life, my son.
Angelina Jolie
The money it would cost to buy another car could be [used to] build two schools. So it's an easy choice that makes me very happy.
Angelina Jolie
I guess that I've always wanted to be a Bond villain.
Angelina Jolie
I like to work with artists from around the world. There are so many new inspiring filmmakers. I had the privilege recently to work with Ethiopian filmmaker Zeresenay Mehari and his wife on the film Difret. They are that unique balance of very thoughtful conscious filmmakers who are also brilliant, original artists.
Angelina Jolie
I want to work then, as my kids get older, I want to have adventures. I want to visit all their countries: learn and live inside all their cultures.
Angelina Jolie
Acting is not pretending or lying. It's finding a side of yourself that's the character and ignoring your other sides. And there's a side of me that wonders what's wrong with being completely honest.
