straight from those killer lips.......
"Death could come at any time," she says. "The tattoo is a strong reminder to live fully in the moment and never have regrets." - On her first tattoo of the Japanese Kanji for Death
"I didn't get the tattoo for the dark reason everyone thinks."
(explaining the window tattoo on her back) "Wherever I am I find myself looking out of the window, wishing I was somewhere else."
Death
"I think most young people go through a point in their lives where they're considering death, or considering why they're alive, or why not, why not to continue or why to continue. And there's something, death doesn't scare me at all. I made a decision that if I was going to live the life I wanted to, and live in the moment, that you could never be too careful or cause it could risk, you know, you think about, or if I do this, then it could affect me this way in the future, or if I do this I'm risking my life, you know, you just have to do everything that you want to do, never regret anything, and be completely in the moment, and in order to do that, you have to accept the realities of life and death"
"There's something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate your life now."
On life
"People will always say all sorts of stuff. Let them. I'm enjoying my life."
"That's the reason we kind of exist. It's like our Job. To give to each other. And learn from each other. To capture moments of people. So it's really strange to have somebody ignore the obvious human being right in front of them."
Indulging in life
"Like when you stop at Baskin-Robbins and get a cone with sprinkles and sit in the car singing along to Elvis on the radio. It’s an absolutely necessary thing to do, because you can.”
A Little Bit of Everything
“I have a dark reputation and people assume all kinds of things. I do have tattoos and I do wear leather, but there are other sides of me that my films express.”
Others on Angelina......
Giovanni Ribisi – “The media promotes Angelina as an eccentric, like everything she’s into is so taboo and scary, but she’s a hyperintelligent actress and totally honest woman who doesn’t happen to agree with middle-class status quo crap.”
Her Father - Jon Voight - "When someone has the kind of talent that my daughter has... It's very... It's a very big deal. It's precious, you know, it's like a treasure in this day and age, it's a world treasure and we've got to take care of her."
