Personal quotes

"She can't speak right now (editor comment)"

"Boys always like to see girls kiss. I don't get it; girls don't want to see boys kiss."

"I'm open to anything. I think everyone should enjoy every moment that they experience."

"Sometimes I think I might insult people by being openly flirtatious, then snatching it back."

"Things that bring out your emotions are what should be in theaters and in books. That's what art is. It makes you feel things."

"Cruelty to animals is wrong," said Swain. "If all I have to do is stand in front of a blackboard naked to make people think about the cruelty that animals go through to make a fur coat, I'm perfectly willing. I'm baring my skin to save animals' skins!"
