More quotes by Sally Field

Image
I have a tendency to think of myself as the mutt of the litter. I'm not purebred.
Sally Field
Image
I never felt safe. In high school, acting is what I did to stay sane. It wasn't about showing off it was about revealing parts of myself that I couldn't reveal anyplace else.
Sally Field
Image
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
Image
You may be a little older, or a little more neurotic, or a little more closed off. But inside, you're just the same.

Image
Fear is where the information is.

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

Image
Get over it. Get on with your life.

When you have kept yourself isolated, no one relates to you, you have no way of understanding actually who you are.
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.

Image
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
Image
Change is never easy.
Sally Field
Image
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
Image
All people want on this earth is to connect with others. Other than eating and sleeping. Human beings need to connect with other human beings. Otherwise, they lose their mind.
Sally Field
Image
I'm an actor. I'm trying to be the character and do what they're doing.

Image
What does the Academy Award mean? I don’t think it means much of anything.
Sally Field
Image
Quit thinking about your weight and start thinking about your worth and who you are and what you haven't done yet. What you want to accomplish.
Sally Field
Image
I'm so vigorous, and I so take it for granted, because I've always been a real physical person.
