  • Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Quotes 269. Today we have two quotes by Angelina

  • Jolie. This is first time we're doing any quotes by her. All right. Let's take a look. Let's

  • take a look at the first one. "Make bold choices and make mistakes, it's all those

  • things that add up to the life you become. " Okay. Let's take a look at the

  • note here. Bold in this quote means daring or involving risk. Many successful

  • people ... yeah I have cover a lot of quotes and many successful people often say you

  • have to take some risks. if you don't take risks, it's hard to get ahead. It's

  • hard to really become a successful person without taking some risks to

  • succeed in life. When Angelina says make some mistakes,

  • she means don't be afraid to make mistakes. Oh yeah I hope she's not really

  • encouraging you purposely make mistakes. She means don't hold back. Don't be

  • afraid to make the mistakes. You know, maybe you won't even make some. But you

  • know, don't hold back you got to go for it. If you are brave enough to recognize

  • and correct them , meaning your mistakes of course, and move on. All your

  • experiences, successes and failures and how you respond to them help to make you

  • who you are. So that's how your personality forms. By

  • your successes and your mistakes together. All right good. And let's look at

  • the second quote here. "Like every parent, when you start your family, your life

  • completely changes. And you completely live for someone else from that moment

  • on they become ... or they come first in every choice. " If they come first means

  • they're considered to be first. " And every choice you make. It's the most wonderful

  • thing. All right. Well It's not easy. Although she did have a lot of

  • advantages. She did have a lot of money and remember when her Brad Pitt... they do

  • hire a lot of baby sitter's. She could afford to do that

  • that actually helps quite a lot. So they have a lot of help, but even still six

  • children , six children you can imagine that. I don't know. I almost can't imagine

  • and that's a lot. Because if you got six children, probably there's always one

  • child with some issue or something. They're sick or they got some problem you got to

  • deal with. So you know there's always there's some pressure or some worry

  • but I guess that's part of being a parent. All right. Let's continue. Angelina has six

  • children, three natural and three adopted. Yes. So just kind of... kind of got a mixed

  • family because she did adopt people from different parts of the world. You know,

  • from Asia from Africa and stuff like that. So and then of course I think she's

  • got three with her and Brad Pitt. This quote helps to show how you can relate

  • to her as a real person. Okay. A parent and not just a movie star. Early in her

  • career, she quickly built up a reputation for being wild and somewhat out of

  • control. Yeah. I remember when I first seen her , you could tell that she had

  • kind of star quality. And even before she was big I remember pointing her out to

  • some other people saying yeah she looks like she's going to be big one day. And

  • obviously she did. But you know, then you started seeing some kind of strange wild

  • sides to her too. But you know she got past that.

  • However after her relationship with Brad Pitt started and she started adopting

  • children she started seeing you know the world more and thinking of the world

  • more. You could really see she matured. Okay. And even used her fame for

  • humanitarian work too, So anyway, I hope you got it. I hope you got to see another

  • little piece of Angelina Jolie here. Thank you for your time.

  • Bye-bye.
