Sally Field Says

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.

I joined the Actors Studio and began to work with Lee Strasberg, and that changed my work.

I never really address myself to any image anybody has of me. That's like fighting with ghosts.
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.

I'm so vigorous, and I so take it for granted, because I've always been a real physical person.

My agent said, 'You aren't good enough for movies.' I said, 'You're fired.'

My last son is leaving to go to college; my grandchildren are being born. My mother is living with me.
Sally Field

There are parts of me that I feel are beautiful, but they don't have anything to do with my nose.
