Before Angelina Found Love: "I Used To Cut Myself Or Jump Out Of Airplanes"

You can always count on Angelina Jolie for a juicy quote!

The Salt starlet graces the cover of Parade this upcoming week and dishes to Dotson Rader about love, family life with Brad Pitt and her late mother Marcheline Bertrand, who died in '07 of ovarian cancer...

"Mother never put herself first, ever. At the end, she said her greatest success was being a mother. When she passed away, I brought my son to church to light a candle for her," she said as her eyes filled with tears. "Forgive me," Angie asks. "I loved her so much."

It's quite lovely to hear Angie talk about her mom - it makes her seem so real; it humanizes her.

She also claims "there's never a period when Brad and I are pulled apart. We are not separated for more than three days, ever." And adds: "Brad knows me completely, exactly as I am, every part of me. He loves me. The kids love me. They know all my flaws and all my oddities. And they accept them. And so I can feel complete."

And what about her rebellious past - has Angie moved on? "I used to cut myself or jump out of airplanes, trying to find something new to push up against because sometimes everything else felt too easy. I was searching for something deeper, something more"

She then points an inscription on her arm, one of her 13 tattoos. "The wild heart caged. I unlocked my cage years ago."
