What is the one quote from her that stands out in your mind, that just screams Katharine Hepburn?

I love something she said on the Cavett interview. It was when she was talking about going out to Hollywood and getting that steel filing in her eye. As she described what happened, she said, "I'm sort of blondy, red [referring to her hair color] and my eyes get red if you THINK red. And I was thinkin' red all the time."

"I was thinkin' red all the time." I love it!

Christopher Columbus, what richness!

Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then."

"I have many regrets, and I'm sure everyone does. The stupid things you do, you regret... if you have any sense, and if you don't regret them, maybe you're stupid."

So blunt. So very, very true.

"I think most of the people involved in any art always secretly wonder whether they are really there because they're good or there because they're lucky."

As anyone involved in any art can say- yes, completely true.

"Plain women know more about men than beautiful ones do. "

...SO true.

Which leaves us to wonder- was the woman ever wrong?

I never lose sight of the fact that just being is fun.

I never realized until lately that women were supposed to be the inferior sex.

I think if you want someone to understand Kate with just once sentence either one of these would work.

Fran: I think the problem with actresses such as Bette Davis and Joan Crawford was that they played SEX SYMBOLS and did woman movies. They were sexy in their day and were the main love interests in the movie. When they got older those woman type movies were dead Jun 26, 2017 16:56:41 GMT -5

Fran: Bette Davis made very different movies from Katherine Hepburn Hepburn. Bette was sexy. So was Crawford. They made woman type movies. Hepburn was the masculine feminist. When their looks went, so did their careers. Hepburn was never that type. Jun 26, 2017 16:57:53 GMT -5

Angela: Personally, I like Bette Davis best she was "a woman for all season" she didn't mince words she did the role without having to apologize for creativity she musters to do the work. Also, she could look different without worrying about her appearance. Mar 14, 2019 19:54:07 GMT -5

Angela: Personally, I felt Bette Davis was the "woman for all seasons" since she used all her creativity to make her artwork. As for Katherine she seems to sound the same - her voice didn't change. Granted she was good in Shakespeare which I give credit. Mar 14, 2019 19:56:35 GMT -5

SJS: Bette had a mostly latent tendency to ham, and she admitted it. She really appreciated a director who could get her to tone it down. She lost respect for a director who would let her get away with it. But she took chances that most actresses wouldn't. Apr 15, 2020 14:12:32 GMT -5
