The salty, oily tastes are not only mouth-watering but are both essential to life and unmistakably of an ancient world.

With unabashed honesty and humility, she doesn’t just wear it on her sleeve but all over her whole body. Family, love, spirituality, strength, passion, truth, justice, it is all there for the world to see. | ||

On her left shoulder is a fairly large Buddhist Thai prayer of protection and luck for her son Maddox. This covers up (the first tattoo she had ever gotten) the Japanese kanji for “death,” which was said to remind her to live. The coordinates to the birthplaces of her adopted children (Maddox and Zahara) now take the place where “Billy Bob” used to reside on her left upper arm. | ||

Her left forearm bears a quote by Tennessee Williams: “A prayer for the wild at heart kept in cages.” She has a large black Latin cross on her left hip. And next to it, on her lower stomach, the Latin Quote: “Quod me netrit me destruit,” which means “what nourishes me also destroys me.” | ||

The Arabic word for “determination” or “strength of will” is scribed on the inside of her right arm (also covering a tattoo she shared with Billy Bob). On her back just below her neckline you’ll find the words “Know Your Rights.” She as well has a Roman numeral 13 on the inside of her right inner forearm. | ||

Because of her well known humanitarian work and her subsequent adoption of her Cambodian born son, Maddox, she was offered (Cambodian) citizenship by the (Cambodian) Prime Minister Hun Sen.

Angelina Jolie:
“Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness!”
What makes you just want to eat Angelina Jolie whole? Is it her unbridled beauty or her god-like body? Her divine flesh can be likened to that of the most succulent olive –– (she is) dark and mysterious. The salty, oily tastes are not only mouth-watering but are both essential to life and unmistakably of an ancient world. Now, don’t forget the pit (Pitt) –– ‘lest you choke to death on it if you aren’t careful. Oh yes! And Brad Pitt, that just makes her even more tantalizingly luscious.
Feasting your eyes upon her you can’t help but notice she is unafraid of marking on this beautiful canvas. Her tattooed body is like a road map to her illustrious life. With unabashed honesty and humility, she doesn’t just wear it on her sleeve but all over her whole body. Family, love, spirituality, strength, passion, truth, justice, it is all there for the world to see.
Tattooed Expressions
An “h” Rune-shaped on the inside of her left wrist for her brother James Haven (allegedly for Timothy Hutton because they were dating when she got it).
