More quotes by Katharine Hepburn
Love fattens on smooth words.
Katharine Hepburn
I always wanted to be a movie actress. I thought it was very romantic. And it was.
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
I think all good actors are personalities. If they're not, they're not stars. What makes you a star is horsepower.
Katharine Hepburn
I think everyone is an opportunist if they have an opportunity.
Katharine Hepburn
My greatest strength is common sense. I'm really a standard brand - like Campbell's tomato soup or Baker's chocolate.
Katharine Hepburn
I don't give a damn about marriage. But I do care about honor.
Katharine Hepburn
I've made forty-three pictures. Naturally I'm adorable in all of them.
Katharine Hepburn
The calla lilies are in bloom again.
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
I'm an atheist, and that's it. I believe there's nothing we can know except that we should be kind to each other and do what we can for people.
Katharine Hepburn
If you have fame, you never feel that you have fame, if you have the brains of a flea. Because fame is something that's over back of you. It ain't ahead.... Not ahead at all. I mean, if you've done it that's great, but what are you going to do now? is the only thing that matters.
Katharine Hepburn
I thought, can you think of any really good reason not to do it? Except that, oh, I'm so shy, or oh, my private life, or oh, are they going to find out how boring I am? You know? And that was the only reason now, in a sense, not to do television. Because it certainly is a method of expression, which has to be accepted as these things come along.
Katharine Hepburn
I'm a legend because I've survived over a long period of time and still seem to be master of my fate - I'm still paddling the goddamned boat myself.
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
It is the ordinary woman who knows something about love the gorgeous ones are too busy being gorgeous.
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
Acting is the perfect idiot's profession.
Katharine Hepburn
I don't think that work ever really destroyed anybody. I think that lack of work destroys them a hell of a lot more.
Katharine Hepburn
My, I like Judy Holliday! She looks like a Monet model. And she's so - so defenseless. I like defenseless people. They're the best.
Katharine Hepburn
