I prefer directing to acting. There is huge freedom that comes from being behind the camera. It brings a lot of responsibilities as well, but is intensely rewarding. Particularly the chance to help draw out the best in young actors.

More quotes by Angelina Jolie
I know my children will never have to say, 'Mom died of ovarian cancer.'
Angelina Jolie
It's hard to be clear about who you are when you are carrying around a bunch of baggage from the past. I've learned to let go and move more quickly into the next place.
Angelina Jolie
I'm hopeful that increased awareness of the issues in Africa will bring about a new wave of progress and activism among young people everywhere.
Angelina Jolie
Everyone can help. We can educate ourselves and our children about other countries and cultures. We have a responsibility to be aware of others and I believe this will inspire the individual way each person can make their difference.
Angelina Jolie
I wanted to educate myself about the world and I wanted to know what was happening to people in other countries. I feel now I have only just begun.
Angelina Jolie
My role as goodwill ambassador has made my work as a film star relatively dull. I can`t find anything that interests me enough to go back to work. I`m simply not excited about anything. I`m not excited about going to a film set.
Angelina Jolie
If you don't get out of the box you've been raised in, you won't understand how much bigger the world is. You might never find out that you are useful for all the right reasons - and not all those stupid things that people tell you you're useful for.
Angelina Jolie
I never save things and I never take pictures. I wanna live in the moment. I don't wanna be focusing on the past.
Angelina Jolie
In countries where people have to flee their homes because of persecution and violence, political solutions must be found, peace and tolerance restored, so that refugees can return home. In my experience, going home is the deepest wish of most refugees.
Angelina Jolie
I felt I should have been taught about the landmine problem. It made me suddenly realize certain things about the world and how much I had to learn, like the history of the people.
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
When I was growing up I wanted to adopt, because I was aware there were kids that didn't have parents. It's not a humanitarian thing, because I don't see it as a sacrifice. It's a gift. We're all lucky to have each other.
Angelina Jolie
To actually feel like you've done something good with your life and you're useful to others is what I was always wanting, and was always looking for.
Angelina Jolie
It's probably not an accident that the films that I care about happen to be about issues that matter to me, stories that I want to tell. If you're going to spend two years of your life on something it has to matter to you, you have to be passionate about it.
Angelina Jolie
I want to be outspoken! I want to say my opinions and I hope they’re taken in the right way. I don’t want to stop being free ... and I won’t...
Angelina Jolie
The fact is I am not having sex. But I feel absolutely ripe for the, what would you say? plucking?
Angelina Jolie
I have so many children. Half of mine are the ones that just must climb the tree, must climb the mountain, must get dirty, must jump off, flip into the pool sideways because it's just who they are. So you try to give them as much guidance and prepare them but they are who they are.
Angelina Jolie
For whatever reason, I don't know why, but Cambodians learned something in their suffering and their struggle that we have lost touch with.
Angelina Jolie
Artists raise their kids differently. We communicate to the point where we probably annoy our children. We have art around the house, we have books, we go to plays, we talk. Our focus is art and painting and dress-up and singing. It's what we love. So I think you can see how artists in some way raise other artists.
Angelina Jolie
I'm a fairy. I'd come and hear, How was your day, honey? And I'd be like, I was a fairy. I don't know.
Angelina Jolie
