More quotes by 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
If I make a fool of myself, who cares? I'm not frightened by anyone's perception of me.
Angelina Jolie
I think I should learn French and be a better cook - basic, really good life stuff.
Angelina Jolie
I always hate speculation on the news, so I don't want to be somebody who speculates.
Angelina Jolie
Sometimes acting and politics make a very bad combination. I think that sometimes people take me less seriously in my work for the UN because I am an actor.
Angelina Jolie
What's risky is living your life and never trying for anything and never doing something brave and never getting yourself scared.
Angelina Jolie
We need policies for long-term security that are designed by women, focused on women, executed by women not at the expense of men, or instead of men, but alongside and with men.
Angelina Jolie
Never send a boy to do a woman's job.
Angelina Jolie
No, no, no, I've just grown up too much to be hurt by what people's opinion of my love life is.
Angelina Jolie
Apart from my children, spending time with refugees was the greatest gift... the greatest life lesson I could ever receive.
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 do not feel any less of a woman. I feel empowered that I made a strong choice that in no way diminishes my femininity.
Angelina Jolie
I think all kids are curious. They're drawn to the bad guy and they're drawn to things that are dark. It's not just simply a desire to be wicked. I think there are things that frighten us in life and, especially children, they want to understand and take it on or understand it so it frightens them less.
Angelina Jolie
The only way to have a life is to commit to it like crazy.
Angelina Jolie
I think that we come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly. Raise kids. Have a good life. Be a good friend. And try to be completely who you are.
Angelina Jolie
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.
Angelina Jolie
I have so much in my life. I want to be of value to the world.
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
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
I take my kids to school and if I go to work they visit me on set, I come home. I have dinner with my family. I have breakfast with my family. I have a very solid, a very warm home. I'm fortunate.
