Jolie on aiding refugees: Im lucky to be in this
Actress participates in World Refugee Day as U.N. Goodwill Ambassador

June 19, 2009
Working with the worlds refugees gives Angelina Jolie a new appreciation for her life in the United States. You see people that have suffered things that you will never, ever know, the Academy Award-winning actress told NBCs Ann Curry on TODAY. And you know how lucky you are.

She also believes her childhood would have been much different if shed grown up knowing what she has learned as a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador. I think it would have got me through my youth easier, Jolie said. I would have been less self-destructive.

Jolie said she hopes that her own children with companion Brad Pitt will benefit from her traveling the globe while she works for the U.N., visiting refugee camps in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Her son Maddox has already visited one camp. I want them to see it as an area where they can go down the street and play football with those kids and get to know them and, as they grow up, see them as friends they spend time with, Jolie said.

"A beautiful woman is a beautiful woman, but a beautiful woman with a brain is an absolutely lethal combination."

I admire these two powerful, smart and strong women. Angie: so beautiful, sophisticated and intelligent . Ann is also elegant, intelligent n lovely.

>> Instead of indulging in nefarious activities Angie is using her celebrity to make this world a better place to live unlike other oblivious celebs. Both of them are epitome of beauty with brain.

one love
