More quotes by Katharine Hepburn
I think everyone is an opportunist if they have an opportunity.
Katharine Hepburn
I have always lived my life exactly as I wanted. I've tried to please no one but myself... but I'm entirely content. I can sit back in my old age and not regret a single moment, not wish to change a single thing. It's what I wish for you...a life with no regrets.

Katharine Hepburn
Its a force of life, sex you cant deny the thrill of riding high, wide and handsome with someone you love.
Katharine Hepburn
I have no romantic feelings about age. Either you are interesting at any age or you are not. There is nothing particularly interesting about being old - or being young, for that matter.
Katharine Hepburn
