Angelina Jolie Quotes
|
|
"I like to hide
behind the characters I play. Despite the public perception, I am a
very private person who has a hard time with the fame thing." "There was a time
when I was really going to give up acting-- right after Foxfire. I was
trying to find characters with a certain strength and things going on,
but I was always disappointed. Wallace was the first thing I did where
I felt their ideas were better than mine." "All women do have
a different sense of sexuality, or sense of fun, or sense of like what's
sexy or cool or tough." "I felt beautiful
when I was in Cambodia [for tomb raider]. I was sweaty, and my hair
was matted and all over the place. And I was happy and hot and accomplishing
a lot and running around, and I could feel my heart beating, and I felt
beautiful. And barefoot or first thing in the morning, I feel beautiful.
Because I feel like me. I didn't always feel that way, but I feel that
way now. When somebody just loves you, and when you make somebody happy,
when your presence seems to make them happy, you suddenly feel like
the most beautiful person in the world." "Oh, God, I struggle
with low self-esteem all the time! I think everyone does. I have so
much wrong with me, it's unbelievable!" "I don't believe
in guilt, I believe in living on impulse as long as you never intentionally
hurt another person, and don't judge people in your life. I think you
should live completely free." "I usually try to
look for something I haven't done before, a side of me that I haven't
completely explored. There's a truth in acting, and there is a very
real part of me that can understand that or can believe in that or can
see the beauty of that or see the ugliness in that and the statement
that needs to be made. So it's all kind of me." "I dropped my pants
in a tattoo parlor in Amsterdam. I woke up in a waterbed with this funky-looking
dragon with a blue tongue on my hip. I realized I made a mistake, so
a few months later I got a cross to cover it. When my pants hang low,
it looks like I'm wearing a dagger!" "I'm angry. I'm
sad. It's a very difficult and sad time. It was a real deep connection,
a deep marriage, so it's not that simple to say this or that one thing
caused the problems. It's clear to me that our priorities shifted overnight.
He's focused on his music and career. I'm focused on my baby. It comes
down to what's important to you." - on her split from husband Billy
Bob Thornton "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." "I need more sex,
OK? Before I die I wanna taste everyone in the world." "I never like being
touched, ever. People used to say I held my breath when they were hugging
me. I still do." "I would like to
be open with the public. I would like to not keep secrets or be careful
when I talk. I don't want to have to plan things. 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." "If I make a fool
of myself, who cares? I'm not frightened by anyone's perception of me."
"Therapy? I don't
need that. The roles that I choose are my therapy" "We come to love
not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect
person perfectly" "Yeah, but before
anything, I think in 6 years somehow I've grown up to have a beautiful
home, 2 beautiful stepchildren, a beautiful husband, my family is healthy
and happy. I'm financially ok and I do what I love for a living. That's
what I think, and I think god, how did I get so lucky." "I don't think the
money people in Hollywood have ever thought I was normal, but I am dedicated
to my work and that's what counts." "That which nourishes
me also destroys me" (it's on her tatoo). "When she kisses
me I feel all four winds blow at my face, but wht do you do with a women
that has no love for you? She is my lost captive and no longer lies
along my legs"-Angelina Jolie in the movie GIA "That's what I discovered
during Girl, Interrupted. I felt that character was really honest, and
it was awful for other people. People didn't really want that."
She looks at you, and says, "I'm quite honest." Uh-huh, you
say, but most people aren't. "And that's so strange," she
replies. "Because then if they're accepted, they're accepted for
something they're not, really. Or if they're loved, it's going to be
an effort their whole life 'cause it's not really for who they are.
That's going to hurt at the end of the day. I know where I stand with
everything. And I have no intention of hurting anybody. I don't judge
people. So there's no reason I can't be really honest. Then I get myself
in trouble." On Original Sin: "There's
some serious erotic stuff in this movie. I really haven't done those
kinds of scenes before. People think I have, because of my reputation,
but the only time I did below-the-waist nudity in any way was in Gia.
But that's it. Nobody's ever seen me really...above the sheets, goin'
a little crazy and doing some things. I'm going to fight for them not
to cut any of it. If they don't cut, it's going to get one hell of a
rating." "We come to love
not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect
person perfectly... Only after we have lost everything, are we free
to do anything... Throw things out there and not be perfect and not
have answers to anything and see if people understand." "Now, I've really
come to like Lara, so she's just like a weird friend." "I haven't touched
a knife in a really long time, I don't need one, I don't want one. Mind
you, I will be doing Tomb Raider, and I will probably be throwing them.
But I was 14. I was like a real punk kid, and I was going out of my
mind. And then sex was boring and I was working and..."
"It's all or nothing
with my makeup. If I get dressed up, I'll go to an extreme. I'll wear
foundation and bright blue or bright red lipstick with one of my weird
purple wigs." "I'd go from film
to film and almost detach from one world and jump in another. I was
living as these people and not having a self. I didn't know who I was.
And things just get really dark." "I feel more connected
to the world living in England than I do in America. When I'm in the
States I feel very detached." About her (now removed)
Death tattoo: "Death could come at any time. The tattoo is a strong
reminder to live fully in the moment and never have regrets. I didn't
get the tattoo for the dark reason everyone thinks." "I can't smoke cigars
without playing with them." "I am the kind of
person who doesn't recognize borders. I don't understand why we think
it is okay to keep someone within one border when they are unable to
feed their family when they could be getting help somewhere else. I
don't see people as different so I don't understand the idea of borders
in this world. "Refugees have done
more for my heart and my spirit than I can ever express in words" "People say to me,
'Be careful what you talk about. Don't talk about things that are weird.'
But why are we all doing this if we're not going to be who we are?" "I'm a pussy cat really, but i can kick ass if i have to" "I'll make it real
simple, I'm a 36-C. In the game, she's a double-D. In the movie, she's
a D. We split the difference...[the movie Croft] is much more athletic,
and she has smaller breasts, but she's still Lara Croft, so there." On Maddox: "We sleep
next to each other so to wake up in the morning and have this little
person next to you is great. He's quite a boy." |
