Angelina Jolie

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.

Sometimes I think my husband is so amazing that I don't know why he's with me. I don't know whether I'm good enough. But if I make him happy then I'm everything I want to be.

I am odd-looking. I sometimes think I look like a funny Muppet.

When I get logical and I don't trust my instincts - that's when I get in trouble.

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 don't see myself as beautiful because I can see a lot of flaws. People have really odd opinions. They tell me I'm skinny as if that's supposed to make me happy.

I didn't really want to live so anything that was an investment in time made me angry... but also I just felt sad. When the hopelessness is hurting you it's the fixtures and fittings that finish you off.

I am deeply grateful to the citizens of Sarajevo and the Sarajevo Canton assembly for bestowing upon me this incredible honor of citizenship. I am so proud to now be a part of such an extraordinary part of the world and fellow citizen to the people I deeply love and admire.

Where ever I am I always find myself looking out the window wishing I was somewhere else.

Once you have six children you're committed.

I never like being touched ever. People used to say I held my breath when they were hugging me. I still do.

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.

There's something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate your life now.

Honestly, I like everything, boyish girls, girlish boys, the heavy and the skinny.

I love to put on lotion. Sometimes I'll watch TV and go into a lotion trance for an hour. I try to find brands that don't taste bad, in case anyone wants to taste me.

All women do have a different sense of sexuality or sense of fun or sense of like what's sexy or cool or tough.

To be intimate with a married man when my own father cheated on my mother is not something I could forgive. I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that. I wouldn't be attracted to a man who would cheat on his wife.

If I make a fool of myself who cares? I'm not frightened by anyone's perception of me.

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 like everything. Boyish girls, girlish boys, the heavy and the skinny. Which is a problem when I'm walking down the street.
