More quotes by Sally Field
I've never had my heart broken. It's a very sad state of affairs. I think everybody should have their heart broken. I don't think it says anything good about me at all.
Sally Field
There are some actors who are my contemporaries who I think of as purebreds and I'm not.
Sally Field
I really like cable T.V.
Sally Field
I really have no ulterior motive in taking on certain roles. I have no larger issue that I really want to show people. I'm an actor, that's all. I just do what I do.
Sally Field
I was just lucky enough to grow up in a time when they actually had drama departments in schools.
Sally Field
The opportunities I've had to play really complex characters - which haven't been a lot, but some - you never get over them.
Sally Field
The people who stand on the sidelines and criticize aren't actually in the arena, spilling their blood.
Sally Field
I've had such an odd career. I always wanted to be a great actor. I wanted to be Katharine Hepburn - ish - there was a bit of nobility about her. Instead I've always felt like the mutt standing on the sidelines, panting and saying, Me, too! How about me? That's just part of my personality.
Sally Field
In reality, people are people. Age does a weird thing to your body on the outside. It makes your face fall and weird things happen all over. But inside, you're the same person you always were.
Sally Field
I'm highly emotional, so I'm highly aware of humiliation.
Sally Field
There are not a lot of places for an actor to explore what it's like to be a woman in her 60s. There aren't any films about it and there very few TV series about it.
Sally Field
Had there not been a Mary Todd, there would not have been an Abraham Lincoln. She found him when he was a young lawyer and really a bumpkin. No one knew of him, but she recognized his brilliance.
Sally Field
I would take plays and I would cut out all the other dialogue and make long monologues because I felt the other kids weren't taking it as seriously as I did.
Sally Field
I haven't had an orthodox career.
Sally Field
I think that's very sad, that I haven't allowed my heart to be broken. I have broken a few.
Sally Field
You may be a little older, or a little more neurotic, or a little more closed off. But inside, you're just the same.
Sally Field
It took me a long time not to judge myself through someone else's eyes.
Sally Field
Change is never easy.
Sally Field
Acting has been my lover and best friend. My confidant and my tormentor. It has given me support and broken my heart and mended it.
Sally Field
I'm so vigorous, and I so take it for granted, because I've always been a real physical person.
Sally Field
