More quotes by Katharine Hepburn
Plain women know more about men than beautiful women do.
Katharine Hepburn
It's either some kind of electricity or some kind of energy. I don't know what it is, but whatever it is, I've got it.
Katharine Hepburn
You give because you love and cannot help giving.
Katharine Hepburn
The thing about life is that you must survive. Life is going to be difficult, and dreadful things will happen. What you do is move along, get on with it, and be tough. Not in the sense of being mean to others, but being tough with yourself and making a deadly effort not to be defeated.
Katharine Hepburn
If you survive long enough, you're revered - rather like an old building.
Katharine Hepburn
Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.
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
In some ways I've lived my life like a man, made my own decisions, etc. I've been as terrified as the next person, but you've got to keep going.
Katharine Hepburn
I think everyone is an opportunist if they have an opportunity.
Katharine Hepburn
Kindness is one of the greatest gifts you can bestow upon another. If someone is in need, lend them a helping hand. Do not wait for a thank you. True kindness lies within the act of giving without the expectation of something in return.
Katharine Hepburn

Katharine Hepburn
I don't give a damn about marriage. But I do care about honor.
Katharine Hepburn
Enemies are so stimulating.
Katharine Hepburn
Without discipline, there's no life at all.
Katharine Hepburn
I have loved and been in love. There's a big difference.
Katharine Hepburn
I am a total me, me, Me person.
Katharine Hepburn
I don't believe in marriage. It's bloody impractical. 'To love, honor, and obey.' If it weren't, you wouldn't have to sign a contract.
Katharine Hepburn
The time to make up your mind about people is never.
Katharine Hepburn
The lack of work destroys people.
Katharine Hepburn
My father, a surgeon and urologist, studied sex professionally all his life. Before he died at 82, he told me he hadn't come to any conclusions about it at all.
