More quotes by 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
I like to move fast, and wearing high heels was tough, and low heels with a skirt is unattractive. So pants took over.
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

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
Never complain. Never explain.
Katharine Hepburn
A boy sows a wild oat or two, the world winks. A girl does the same -- scandal.
