More quotes by Sally Field
I wouldnt mind having my heart broken because it would mean that I had that much feeling connected to somebody. And that would be really great.
Sally Field
I'm highly emotional, so I'm highly aware of humiliation.
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

Sally Field
If mothers ruled the world, there wouldn’t be any goddamn wars in the first place.
Sally Field
I've done some good work and some not-good work.
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
Get over it. Get on with your life.
Sally Field
There are some actors who are my contemporaries who I think of as purebreds and I'm not.
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'm so vigorous, and I so take it for granted, because I've always been a real physical person.
Sally Field
I was just lucky enough to grow up in a time when they actually had drama departments in schools.
Sally Field
