More quotes by 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
If mothers ruled the world, there wouldn’t be any goddamn wars in the first place.
Sally Field
I mean, the only thing that matters to me is getting to the work - getting to do the work. And I don't really care where it is: whether it's on stage or on television or in film.
Sally Field
There's always been a shortage of roles for three-dimensional women, no matter what age. If you look at the statistics on women in film, be they behind the camera or in front of the camera, and it's pretty nauseous-making. It always has been.
Sally Field

Sally Field
I think when you're reaching outside of something you're comfortable doing, you're just heading towards a light. I don't think you stop to justify it.

Sally Field
I haven't had an orthodox career.
Sally Field
I had to let my ego go a long time ago.
Sally Field
I was just lucky enough to grow up in a time when they actually had drama departments in schools.
Sally Field
You just do the best you can with what you've got... and sometimes magic strikes.
Sally Field
Fear is where the information is.
Sally Field
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
It took me getting to my 50s before I could say Whatever! about other people's criticism, especially when it's not true.
Sally Field
If I hadn't fought back, I might have been Gidget forever.
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
I really like cable T.V.
Sally Field
I've had such an odd career.
Sally Field
The roles... the deep roles that I've gotten to play have turned my course. They've changed my life experience.
