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.

More quotes by Sally Field
I really like cable T.V.
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
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.
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
People, I just want to say, you know, can we all get along?
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
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.
Sally Field
I was just lucky enough to grow up in a time when they actually had drama departments in schools.
Sally Field
I have a tendency to think of myself as the mutt of the litter. I'm not purebred.
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've grown used to being lonely over the years, so I don't seek to change it. But aren't there many people who are lonely?
Sally Field
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
I'm so vigorous, and I so take it for granted, because I've always been a real physical person.
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
If mothers ruled the world, there wouldn’t be any goddamn wars in the first place.
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
Get over it. Get on with your life.
Sally Field
My last son is leaving to go to college my grandchildren are being born. My mother is living with me.
Sally Field
There are some actors who are my contemporaries who I think of as purebreds and I'm not.
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
