If I didn't have my films as an outlet for all the different sides of me, I would probably be locked up.
If every choice you make comes from an honest place, you're solid, and nothing anybody can say about you can rock you or change your opinion
I know my children will never have to say, 'Mom died of ovarian cancer.'
Be brave, be bold, be free.
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.
Life comes with many challenges. The ones that should not scare us are the ones we can take on and take control of.
Brad [Pitt] and I have never wanted our kids to be actors. We've never talked about it. But, we also want them to be around film and be a part of mommy and daddy's life, and for it not to be kept from it either. We just want them to have a good, healthy relationship with it.
I don't really send text messages. I rarely carry my phone. I occasionally check messages at the end of the night, but I don't carry it around.
I'm able to be very effective because I'm not a Democrat, I'm not a Republican. So, I'm not tied, and I'd never want to be tied to anything, to some constituency that I would have to answer to.
I would start drinking something terrible if I were in a situation where I was surrounded by lies or quiet or secrets. It's just not a real life.
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.
I do believe in the old saying 'What does not kill you makes you stronger.' Our experiences, good and bad, make us who we are. By overcoming difficulties, we gain strength and maturity.
I'm very careful with my emotions, and I don't let them run free. If I'm upset, it's usually for a very good, very deep reason.
Where ever I am I always find myself looking out the window wishing I was somewhere else.
