More From Sally Field
- "I haven’t had an orthodox career, and I’ve wanted more than anything to have your respect. The first time I didn’t feel it, but this time I feel it, and I can’t deny the fact that you like me, right now, you like me!"
- "I was raised to sense what someone wanted me to be and be that kind of person. It took me a long time not to judge myself through someone else’s eyes."
- "My agent said, ‘You aren’t good enough for movies.’ I said, ‘You’re fired.’"

- "Old age is like a plane flying through a storm. Once you’re aboard, there’s nothing you can do."― Golda Meir
- "It is the spirit of the age to believe that any fact, no matter how suspect, is superior to any imaginative exercise, no matter how true."― Gore Vidal
