Katharine Hepburn Life Quotations

Life is hard. After all, it kills you.

If you obey all the rules you miss all the fun.

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

. . . as one goes through life one learns that if you don't paddle your own canoe, you don't move.

The thing about life is that you must survive. Life is going to be difficult, and dreadful things will happen. What you do is move along, get on with it, and be tough. Not in the sense of being mean to others, but being tough with yourself and making a deadly effort not to be defeated.

Enemies are so stimulating.

Life is full of censorship. I cant spit in your eye.

Without discipline, there's no life at all.

Time is the stuff of which life is made.

Life is very hard, isn't it? It does kill you, after all.

Life's what's important. Walking, houses, family. Birth and pain and joy - and then death.
