I wear my sort of clothes to save me the trouble of deciding which clothes to wear.
Katharine Hepburn
I have had twenty years of perfect companionship with a man among men. He is a rock and a protection. I have never regretted it.
Katharine Hepburn
You never feel that you have fame. It's always in back of you.

Katharine Hepburn
Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get — only what you are expecting to give — which is everything. What you will receive in return varies. But it really has no connection with what you give. You give because you love and cannot help giving.
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

Katharine Hepburn

Katharine Hepburn
You politicians remain professional because the voters remain amateur.
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 can't say I believe in prizes. I was a whiz in the three-legged race - that's something you CAN win.
Katharine Hepburn
I am a total me, me, Me person.
Katharine Hepburn
You are the only person you can actually change
