More quotes by Katharine Hepburn
I can't say I believe in prizes. I was a whiz in the three-legged race - that's something you CAN win.
Katharine Hepburn
It's life isn't it? You plow ahead and make a hit. And you plow on and someone passes you. Then someone passes them. Time levels.
Katharine Hepburn
You never feel that you have fame. It's always in back of you.
Katharine Hepburn
Bogart was like Henry Fonda - proud and happy to be an actor.
Katharine Hepburn
It's not what you start in life, it's what you finish.
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
Time is the stuff of which life is made.
Katharine Hepburn
I think all good actors are personalities. If they're not, they're not stars. What makes you a star is horsepower.
Katharine Hepburn
Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get — only what you are expecting to give — which is everything. What you will receive in return varies. But it really has no connection with what you give. You give because you love and cannot help giving.
Katharine Hepburn
Life is hard. After all, it kills you.
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
The time to make up your mind about people is never.
Katharine Hepburn
The calla lilies are in bloom again.
Katharine Hepburn
Few people know what they mean when they say, I love you. ... Well, what does the word love mean? It means total interest. I think the reason very few people really fall in love with anyone is they're not willing to pay the price. The price is you have to adjust yourself to them.
Katharine Hepburn
If it interests you, they don't have to pay you. It's a fascinating business anyway-it's very nice to be paid-but when you do thrilling material, it's like buying a piece of furniture that's really good.
Katharine Hepburn
The only time I am ever miserable is when I do something just for the money.
Katharine Hepburn
I was brought up by two extremely intelligent people who gave me the greatest gift that man can give anyone, and that is freedom from fear.
Katharine Hepburn
Listen to the song of life.
Katharine Hepburn
Cold sober, I find myself absolutely fascinating.
Katharine Hepburn
The calla lilies are in bloom again. Such a strange flower—suitable to any occasion. I carried them on my wedding day, and now I place them here in memory of something that has died.
