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.

More quotes by Sally Field

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 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.

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.
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
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'm highly emotional, so I'm highly aware of humiliation.
Sally Field
The people who stand on the sidelines and criticize aren't actually in the arena, spilling their blood.
Sally Field
I was just lucky enough to grow up in a time when they actually had drama departments in schools.
Sally Field
Get over it. Get on with your life.
Sally Field
You can't help but feel all the human-rights issues.
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
I had to let my ego go a long time ago.
Sally Field
I think the first thing I did was several scenes from Romeo and Juliet.
