Katharine Hepburn

Katharine Hepburn
I find a woman's point of view much grander and finer than a man's.
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
Enemies are so stimulating.
Katharine Hepburn
How wonderful are the women and men in the world who feed us. Especially those who feed us with no salary. The mothers—I thought. The wives.
Katharine Hepburn
I welcome death. In death there are no interviews!
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.
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
The lack of work destroys people.
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
