More quotes by Angelina Jolie

It's great to jump into things you're not sure of and you haven't done and that are a little scary. That's what we have to do, as artists.

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
I've often felt unattractive or different looking. As I've grown up, I've felt more comfortable in my own skin. It may sound cliche, but when you feel beautiful and strong on the inside, it shows on the outside.
Angelina Jolie
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
Every day we choose who we are by how we define ourselves.
Angelina Jolie
Violence against women and lack of intervention and man's inhumanity to man and this kind of atrocities are going on. These are big issues of our times, we must speak about them, we must learn how to better understand how these things happen so we can address them.
Angelina Jolie
I love doing lesbian love scenes. Before I did my lesbian scenes in Gia, I talked to actresses who said love scenes are easier with another woman than a man. Bound's Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly said they'd lie there and discuss the sale at Barney's between takes.
Angelina Jolie
The beautiful thing about such moments in life is that there is so much clarity. You know what you live for and what matters.
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
My kids will be needing me a lot when they hit their teens. If I know anything about being a teenager. I need to be braced to be spending a lot of time with all six of them and making sure I can be there for when they go through everything.
Angelina Jolie
I always hate speculation on the news, so I don't want to be somebody who speculates.
Angelina Jolie
Love should be that person that inspires you to be a better person.

It's a natural thing for a child to lose a parent. I lost my mom too young but it happened. And I'm happy she's out of pain, 'cause I love her and she's my friend.
Angelina Jolie
Acting helped me as I was growing up. It helped me learn about myself, helped me travel, helped me understand life, express myself, all those wonderful things. So I'm very, very grateful it's a fun job. It's a luxury.
Angelina Jolie
