More quotes by Katharine Hepburn
To live creatively free, do what you know how to do now, then 'act as if' you know how to do the rest.
Katharine Hepburn
To keep your character intact you cannot stoop to filthy acts. It makes it easier to stoop the next time.
Katharine Hepburn
When I’ve been unsuccessful, I’ve been controlled. When I’ve been successful, I’ve been in control.
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.

Being an actor is such a humiliating experience because you are selling yourself to the public, your face, your personality, and that is humiliating. As you get older, it becomes more humiliating because you've got less to sell.
Katharine Hepburn
You sell yourself. The part that I sell is the creature. The adorable part.
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
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

Katharine Hepburn
I love rain. It's lucky, I always think.
Katharine Hepburn
Without discipline, there's no life at all.
Katharine Hepburn
People have grown fond of me, like some old building.
Katharine Hepburn
I don't feel the slightest interest in the next world I think it's here. And I think anything good that you're going to do, you should do for other people here and not so you can try to have a happy time in the next world.
Katharine Hepburn
You can’t change the music of your soul.
Katharine Hepburn
Don't moan, don't whine, don't blame. Just get on with it.
Katharine Hepburn
The notion that work is a burden is a terrible mistake. Working and facing up to one's responsibilities: That's happiness.
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
People who want to be famous are really loners. Or they should be.
Katharine Hepburn
