More quotes by Katharine Hepburn
Nobody owes anybody anything it's up to each individual to set high standards for himself or herself, and to set about working hard and creating a solid future.
Katharine Hepburn
If you always do what interests you, at least one person is pleased.
Katharine Hepburn
Everyone thought I was bold and fearless and even arrogant, but inside I was always quaking.
Katharine Hepburn
A boy sows a wild oat or two, the world winks. A girl does the same -- scandal.
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

Katharine Hepburn
My greatest strength is common sense. I'm really a standard brand - like Campbell's tomato soup or Baker's chocolate.
Katharine Hepburn
Dressing up is a bore. At a certain age, you decorate yourself to attract the opposite sex, and at a certain age, I did that. But I'm past that age.
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
I don't care WHAT the say about me, as long as it's not the truth
Katharine Hepburn
Never complain. Never explain.
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
When I started out, I didn't have any desire to be an actress or to learn how to act. I just wanted to be famous.
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
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
Don't moan, don't whine, don't blame. Just get on with it.
Katharine Hepburn
