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'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
I'm highly emotional, so I'm highly aware of humiliation.
Sally Field
Get over it. Get on with your life.
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

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.

I haven't had an orthodox career.
Sally Field
We just fight our way through it. But you can't just get up and walk out without repeating the behavior over and over.
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
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 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
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 have a tendency to think of myself as the mutt of the litter. I'm not purebred.
Sally Field
What does the Academy Award mean? I don’t think it means much of anything.
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
Sally Field
Change is never easy.
