More quotes by Angelina Jolie
I try not to think about my public life. I focus on my private life, and that's just the best way to live.
Angelina Jolie
Like most people, you listen to yourself on the phone or an answering machine and you're like, 'Ugh.' So to do something with just your voice is hard.
Angelina Jolie
It's better to have nobody, than to have someone who is half there, or doesn't want to be there
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 love directing, It means so much to me to direct stories about subject matter that I care deeply about. I can act in many things, and you can try to experience different characters, but to direct is years of your life and you have to really love it and believe in it.
Angelina Jolie
But we survived, and we're a good family. I just don't want to dedicate one more tear, or watch my mother cry one more time.

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 wanna read a good paper first thing in the morning. And if I see a lie about myself flash across the front of the cover, I don't think much of the rest of the newspaper.
Angelina Jolie
I need someone physically stronger than me.... I am always on top. It's really unfortunate. I am begging for the man that can put me on the bottom. Or the woman. Anybody that can take me down.
Angelina Jolie
We talk about orphanages, we talk about their countries and differences, and it’s a source of excitement and pride. I’ve heard Maddox explain to Zahara when they are talking about pregnancy, ‘No, Zee, remember, you were in that nice African woman’s belly. I was in that nice Cambodian woman’.
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
All women do have a different sense of sexuality, or sense of fun, or sense of like what's sexy or cool or tough.
Angelina Jolie
My mom always wanted me to be an actor. And I started going to theater and going on auditions young. I only realized about five years ago that I actually didn’t want to be an actor.
Angelina Jolie
We need to be open minded to understand that there are lots of different levels of things going on and we shouldn't be so quick to judge - and certainly not to judge a whole race, a whole religion or a whole people - and a lot of that is going on.
Angelina Jolie
It's angering that not everybody has signed this treaty to ban landmines. It's disgusting, it really is, because it is fact that (mines) hurt a high percentage of civilians. They're not effective in any other real way. They've enough weapons for war.
Angelina Jolie
I always hate speculation on the news, so I don't want to be somebody who speculates.
Angelina Jolie
