"... my daughter [Angelina Jolie] just has an incredible talent. The camera loves her. Of course I've always loved looking at Angie's face; that's the best scenery I can be around. That's my happiness and now it's the happiness of other people as well. Just look at that beautiful face and all the intelligence that it has and all the passion. It's quite extraordinary" - Jon Voight quoted in Time Out New York, Jan. 14-21, 1999
"I don't live two lives," she says. "I have the great good fortune of being able to have a fun job. It's a job that allows me to travel and that allows me, somtimes, to get out of myself. So that's my job. But it's not at all my life." - Jolie to Esquire July 2007
"I was distressed when this desperate situation was brought to my attention. I hope to encourage other people to make themselves aware of this crisis facing the Western Saharan refugees and do what they can to help." - Jolie after donating $100k to the Western Saharan Refugees statement.
"If I ever have a relationship again, I don't think he'll be an actor. It'll be somebody who can teach me, somebody who's already been inspired in their life to do a lot of things that I haven't even thought of yet, who can make me better as a person." - Jolie quoted to theage.com, April 16, 2004
"If you start to regret, start to hesitate and question every move to make, then you live in some different way," she says. "And for all the craziness I've done, I've never hurt anybody." - Jolie quoted in the Sunday Times, Nov. 9, 2008
"In March Ms. Jolie married the English actor Jonny Lee Miller ("Trainspotting"), whom she met on the set of 'Hackers'. The wedding, a small civil ceremony attended only by her mother and Mr. Miller's best friend, was a testament to Ms. Jolie's offbeat approach to life. Mr. Miller wore black leather, while the bride donned black rubber pants and a white shirt with the groom's name written in her blood across the back. Why, you ask? 'It's your husband,' she answers with a sly grin. 'You're about to marry him. You can sacrifice a little to make it really special.' [She drew the blood herself, 'very carefully,' she says 'with a clean surgical needle.']" - From The New York Times, Aug. 25, 1996
"Mr. Voight and Angelina's mother, Marcheline Bertrand, deliberately gave their two children middle names that would work as last names so they could choose anonymity. 'It's kind of hard for the children of leading actors,' Mr. Voight says. 'If they say, 'Oh, you're Jon Voight's daughter,' then there are some expectations." - From "Following, Ambivalently, in Mom or Dad's Footsteps" by Alexandra Bandon, The New York Times, Aug. 25, 1996
"My life belongs to him," Jolie says now. "That thing I used to have when something would go wrong, that place of self-destruction or addiction or craziness, when you have a child you can't afford that and you just don't. When your world falls apart or you're feeling really depressed, you pick yourself up and smile so they don't worry." - Jolie talking about her adopted son Maddox Rolling Stones, July 24, 2003
"She looks the most beautiful when she's in the field - natural, no makeup, nothing... It doesn't get any better than that." - Wyclef Jean on Jolie, to People magazine, May 8, 2006
"There was a time when I was really going to give up on acting, right after 'Foxfire'. I was trying to find characters with a certain strength and things going on, but I was always disappointed. '[George] Wallace' was the first thing I did where I felt their ideas were better than mine." - Jolie quoted in GQ, December 1998
"When people talk about me they talk about my intensity. Angie has that same intensity." - Jon Voight quoted in Premiere, January 1999
"You're young, you're drunk, you're in bed, you have knives, shit happens." - Jolie
