--"She's absolutely serious, absolutely informed..Her work with refugees is not something to decorate herself. She studies the issues...For her, it's not about saving the world, it's about saving kids....She doesn't need this. This needed her." (Former Sec. of State Colin Powell)

--"She is an unprecedented 21st-century entity, a tabloid star with international credibility, a "soft news" icon commanding respect in a hard-news world." (Sean Smith of Newsweek)

--"And there are people in my own profession I admire, who have done things and made substantial change, like Bono and Angelina Jolie. They are models for how you can meaningfully devote your life to causes. It's not just lending your face. It's giving yourself. A lot of people lack meaning in their lives, and that's why getting active in issues like microfinance gives you such a center to your life" (Natalie Portman)

--"Now, that's a woman with experience. She's no wuss....She's someone walkin' her walk and talkin' her talk. You get there because you take a life of experience and apply it." (Sharon Stone)

-- "Angelina Jolie is seemingly doing an incredible job at philanthropy. I think she's found her niche, just like I feel I've found mine. She's a great ambassador." (Jon Bon Jovi)

--"I am also inspired by what Angelina Jolie is doing by traveling to places like Cambodia to help children by actually being there and being more involved." (Liv Tyler, talking of her UNICEF inspiration)

--"Angelina has my huge respect and I actually called her and asked her (for advice) when I was going on this trip and she was very kind. I just think that the work that she does is absolutely inspiring." (Drew Barrymore)

--"These people don't need additional focus or respect. I'm not that cynical at all. Angelina has given not only her time, but her money to assist people who need it most...In the past, entertainers have usually led selfish and egotistical lives so I like it when I see people like Angelina trying so hard. I think she has raised some awareness and that she has an extremely good heart." (Mia Farrow)

--"She's a phenomenal example to young women because she's a successful career woman, a humanitarian and a mother too...The concept of acting in movies, being an international delegate for the UN, adopting children and being a mother is so much responsibility. I have a lot of respect for her. (Evangeline Lilly)

--"It's important to separate people from what they do as a person and as part of an institution. Take ANGELINA JOLIE for example, she's a successful actress but when she's doing charity work she does it within the framework of the United Nations, as a representative for them, not as a superstar. People should appreciate these efforts." (Danny Glover)

--"What would she have to do to prove that she's sincere?Should she give more money? More time? It's a black-hole debate. When people judge anyone's sincerity, I just think, 'Oh, yeah? What are you doing?" (Producer Dede Gardner)

--"Angie roughs it. She lives with us in the forest and eats the crickets and the cockroaches the locals eat without thinking twice about it. Whenever I read in magazines about her 'glorious house in Cambodia,' I think, What? It's a shack. I don't think people believe she has the ability to abandon everything in the West and transpose herself to a situation with malaria and dengue fever and the most extreme poverty. I read about her 'Hollywood life.' Well, you can't live a Hollywood life in this part of Cambodia." (Stephen Bognar hired by Angelina to run a conservation project in Cambodia)

--"Good for Angelina Jolie. She obviously loves all the stuff she does. I couldn't do such a lot of charity work. I look up to people like her. I applaud Angelina ! " (Sharon Osbourne)

-- I'm talking about traveling the world and seeing different things. Possibly doing what Angelina Jolie does - to go over there and bring food." (Hayden Panettiere )

--"Angelina Jolie is a good example of someone who really puts her time into bettering the lives of so many children. What I don't understand is the media's criticism (of Jolie's) involvement in humanitarian aide and why they question her motives and sincerity. It's like, Who cares? She's doing a good job and putting so much of her time and money in the causes." (Tea Leoni)

--She could be doing anything with that money, a brilliant career and so much talent, and she chooses to, in her off time, fly to places where she knows her voice is needed. She balances being a mother, a career woman and a humanitarian at the same time. That is beautiful." (Zoe Zaldana)

-- "(ANGELINA) seems to be someone who spends a lot of time thinking about pretty substantial things. But there's such a loss of critical thinking in this country. She's giving an enormous amount of money - and yet there is still interest in the really superficial." (Sarah Jessica Parker)
