Loretta Swit

Watching movies was like going to school for me. It still is. You're always learning. Even if it's bad, you're learning what not to do.

Our planet is dying. Whales will be extinct before we ever get to know them. They say these creatures are so intelligent. They may disappear from the face of the Earth before we know them, and that is a great tragedy.

I'm a movie buff. My mom would take me to a double feature. We'd come out, go have Chinese food, and then go back into another cinema and see another double feature. I feel I'm a child of the movies.

It's never too late to go out and get that feeling back.

We should be able to be ourselves. Make a political stand if you want to.

Remember this about the Korean War: The men were drafted; the women volunteered.

Acting is not hiding to me; it's revealing. We give you license to feel. 'Hey, she's crying, so it's okay if I cry, too.' That's the most important thing in the world, because when you stop feeling, that's when you're dead.

If you care enough, you make a difference.

I don't think we should be deprived of the privilege of free speech.

I just can't wait to get out there on stage. There's no anxiety at all. I love being able to take this journey with the audience, because we all have a ball with it - even if we're crying.

I love being creative in all forms.

I haven't met a horse I didn't love. I love caring for them, cleaning them. I love doing my own tack and giving them treats.
