Sally Field
If I hadn't fought back, I might have been Gidget forever.
Sally Field
There's always been a shortage of roles for three-dimensional women, no matter what age. If you look at the statistics on women in film, be they behind the camera or in front of the camera, and it's pretty nauseous-making. It always has been.
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
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
