Betty Field

I think it must be awful not to work. My only point in being idle is to rest so that I can work more... I'm only unhappy when I'm not working.

I'm not an outstanding personality, and I'm certainly no beauty. Acting ability is all I've got to trade on.

I see a lot of actors for whom life becomes one big schedule. I guess I try to be more sensitive to my private life - to take a breath of fresh air and be in the countryside or on a golf course.

You don't work on something for six years and be blind to the myriad of other approaches.

If every time you engage in a sex act, you go into a confession box, you will never accept your own sexuality.
