Sally Field Quotes
- "My agent said, 'You aren't good enough for movies'. I said, 'You're fired'."
- "My country is still so repressed. Our idea of what is sexual is blonde hair, long legs, 22 years old. It has nothing to do with humour, intelligence, warmth...everything to do with teeth and cleavage."
- On Burt Reynolds: "What I look for mostly in a man is humor, honesty and a mustache. Burt has all three."
