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.

More quotes by Katharine Hepburn
The calla lilies are in bloom again.
Katharine Hepburn
Friendship, if somebody holds out his hand toward you, you've got to reach and take it... There are too many people alone, and if you're lucky enough for somebody to want you as a friend, it's an obligation.
Katharine Hepburn
He's worked his entire life and he's never lived a single moment, I mean not a moment, in the real world.
Katharine Hepburn
Without discipline, there's no life at all.
Katharine Hepburn
To keep your character intact you cannot stoop to filthy acts. It makes it easier to stoop the next time.
Katharine Hepburn
Silence the artist and you have silenced the most articulate voice the people have.
Katharine Hepburn

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
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
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
Acting is the perfect idiot's profession.
Katharine Hepburn
If you need a helping hand, you can find one at the end of your arm.
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
If you always do what interests you, at least one person is pleased.
Katharine Hepburn
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
People think that I'm tough and strong and that I kicked my way through everything. But they are wrong. The truth is that when I was young I was adorable and a trembling wreck.
Katharine Hepburn
I would have been a terrible mother because I'm basically a very selfish human being. Not that that has stopped most people going off and having children.
Katharine Hepburn
I'm what is known as gradually disintegrating. I don't fear the next world, or anything. I don't fear hell, and I don't look forward to heaven.
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.
