With doing the movies I've done I don't think I would be half the person I am today.
Angelina Jolie
Image
I've learned a lot from Clint [Eastwood], who's an extremely economical director.
Angelina Jolie
Image
The nice thing about being a director is that I can say, I can only get into the room after the kids are at school, and I have to be back for dinner. And they're coming for lunch.
Angelina Jolie
Image
I think all women go through periods where we hate this about ourselves, we don't like that. It's great to get to a place where you dismiss anything you're worried about. I find flaws attractive. I find scars attractive.
Angelina Jolie
Image
Children teach you so much. You take another look at life when you have a child. Everything is new again for you. They ground you.
Angelina Jolie
Image
If you have enough people sitting around telling you you're wonderful, then you start believing you're fabulous, then someone tells you you stink and you believe that too!

Cause a little trouble. It’s good for you.

I think it's easier to play when you do have a balanced home. I think if I did have alcoholism in my personal life, or my mother, or somebody close to me, it might have been much more uncomfortable to get in there.
Angelina Jolie
Image
I'm shy to call myself a director still. When someone says, 'What do you do for a living?' I don't know if I've earned that.
Angelina Jolie
Image
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
Image
I cry secretly. I don't really cry in front of anybody. I hate crying. I feel like it's not accomplishing anything. But when I lost my mother, I cried, and I cried big.
Angelina Jolie
Image
All of us would like to believe that if we were in a bad situation someone would help us.
Angelina Jolie
Image
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
Image
I think as a human being, as a mother, as someone who works internationally, I needed desperately to know a man like Louis Zamperini in my life, to know that there is hope.
Angelina Jolie
Image
I remember the days of auditioning and being nervous and so I really didn't want to make people have to jump through hoops to do auditions and be nervous and make them more nervous. I kind of wanted to hire everybody and find something for everybody.

Save one-third, live on one-third, and give away one-third
Angelina Jolie
Image
It doesn't take courage to drink too much and be wild or jump around. That doesn't take any kind of boldness, just riding a motorcycle or whatever the idea of being tough is. Tough is having four kids. Tough is committing to life and being disciplined.
Angelina Jolie
Image
I didn't even know my bra size until I made a movie.
Angelina Jolie
Image
I'm drawn to kids that are already born. I think some people are meant to do certain things, and I believe I'm meant to find my children in the world somewhere and not necessarily have them genetically.
Angelina Jolie
Image
I went through a period when I felt my film characters were having more fun than I was. It might partly explain why I ended up tattooed or doing certain extreme things in my life.
