Sally Field
Fear is where the information is.
Sally Field

Sally Field
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
It took me a long time not to judge myself through someone else's eyes.
Sally Field
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
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've done some good work and some not-good work.
Sally Field
I'm an actor. I'm trying to be the character and do what they're doing.
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
Like a jerk, I went to a nutritionist and I ate the most repulsive, awful things. I didn't allow myself to eat chocolate cake and french fries and cheeseburgers.
