More quotes by Hilary Swank
When I was a swimmer and I would lose a heat in something I was doing whether it backstroke or breaststroke, were two of my most strongest strokes, I would look at how whoever it was that won and beat me and think, What did they do? What were... What were the qualities that they had that I can incorporate into my swimming to make me better?

Hilary Swank
It's hard to find really original, compelling works of fiction, for women especially. I find that these true life stories about these women that I'm so blessed to play are some of the most compelling stories, and the truth is stranger than fiction.
Hilary Swank
I think what's great about that relationship between an actor and a Director is you have to really blow away all your thing, the safety things that you put up.

New Yorkers have this special spot in Central Park, where they do this 5K run, the minute the clock strikes twelve. I ran once, and I'll never do that again, either. But, it's awesome to watch those people run. It's such a great environment and place to be.
Hilary Swank
You're always going to make mistakes. That's life. You just want to grow from them and try to make as few as possible. That's why you do reach out and ask people for help, where needed.

My relaxation has always been my animals - going to the dog park with them, going to the beach.

As a performer, I don't like to play the same thing over and over. I like to play it and let it go and move on. That's also why television hasn't really been something that I've done.
Hilary Swank
It's give-and-take and back-and-forth, that constantly allows you to grow as an artist and as a human being.
Hilary Swank
There's so much I want to do as an actor. I feel like there's so much more that I want to achieve and that I can achieve.
Hilary Swank
