Motherhood is given the brush-off in our society. 'Oh, I'm just a mom,' you hear women say. 'Just' a mom? Please! Being a mom is everything. It's mentorship, it's inspirational, it's our hope for the future.

I grew up in a show-business family, but we were working-class show business. There was nothing glamorous about it. You had great things one day and the next day, nothing.

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
Image
I haven't had an orthodox career, and I've wanted more than anything to have your respect. The first time I didn't feel it, but this time I feel it, and I can't deny the fact that you like me, right now, you like me!

The opportunities I've had to play really complex characters - which haven't been a lot, but some - you never get over them.

I wouldnt mind having my heart broken because it would mean that I had that much feeling connected to somebody. And that would be really great.
Sally Field
Image
I find that I'm not as worried anymore about what other people think. That's a comfortable place to be. And I'm starting to let go of the feeling that I need to push myself to do things I don't want to do - an impulse that has always been linked to the feeling that I'm not enough.
Sally Field
Image
People, I just want to say, you know, can we all get along?
Sally Field
Image
I don't want to look old and worn, but what can you do? My real focus is being an actor. I care more about having the opportunity to play roles that I haven't played than I care if my neck looks like someone's bedroom curtains.
Sally Field
Image
But I was losing so much bone density that I would have been in grave danger. And I mean grave danger. If I had let it go just a few more years I could have broken my hip or spine just picking up my granddaughter
Sally Field
Image
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.

I didn't back into being an actor, I was born one.

The people who stand on the sidelines and criticize aren't actually in the arena, spilling their blood.

We just fight our way through it. But you can't just get up and walk out without repeating the behavior over and over.
