Katharine Hepburn
You never feel that you have fame. It's always in back of you.
Katharine Hepburn
I have loved and been in love. There's a big difference.

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.

I wear my sort of clothes to save me the trouble of deciding which clothes to wear.
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 find a woman's point of view much grander and finer than a man's.
Katharine Hepburn
Life is very hard, isn't it? It does kill you, after all.
Katharine Hepburn
I would have made a terrible parent. The first time my child didn't do what I wanted, I'd kill him.
Katharine Hepburn
If you need a helping hand, you can find one at the end of your arm.
