More quotes by Sally Field
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 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.
Sally Field
I think the first thing I did was several scenes from Romeo and Juliet.
Sally Field
I had to let my ego go a long time ago.
Sally Field
I grew up in a show-business family, but we were working-class show business. There was nothing glamorous about it. You had great things one day and the next day, nothing.
Sally Field
When you're old, you are more certain of who you are, and that may be a good thing or a bad thing.
Sally Field
What does the Academy Award mean? I don’t think it means much of anything.
Sally Field
You just do the best you can with what you've got... and sometimes magic strikes.
Sally Field
I have a tendency to think of myself as the mutt of the litter. I'm not purebred.
Sally Field
You may be a little older, or a little more neurotic, or a little more closed off. But inside, you're just the same.
Sally Field
