I wanted to be Katharine Hepburn-ish - there was a bit of nobility about her.
I've had such an odd career. I always wanted to be a great actor. I wanted to be Katharine Hepburn - ish - there was a bit of nobility about her. Instead I've always felt like the mutt standing on the sidelines, panting and saying, "Me, too! How about me?" That's just part of my personality.
I love 'Bringing Up Baby.' Anything that Katharine Hepburn's in. I'm committed to the Humphrey Bogart, Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn era of filmmaking.
When my stepmother had my sister, Katharine Hepburn dropped by to say hello. She came with George Cukor, who wasn't a star, but he was a famous director. He was also my grandmother's best friend, so I knew him well as a kid. But when George showed up with Katharine Hepburn, I was utterly star struck.
I admire those women who really knew who they were and didn't apologize for it. Katharine Hepburn? She was ahead of her time.

No one knows ish about ish, though some ish does get much closer to the real ish.
I'm a huge Katharine Hepburn fan.
[Katharine Hepburn] was much stronger, much more opinionated than I am or ever was, and it was considered attractive on her. But not on me. I don't know. Maybe her Bryn Mawr accent was more appealing than mine.
I would be surprised if they gave Meryl Streep her third Oscar for a film as light as 'Julie and Julia,' although, of course, Katharine Hepburn's third Oscar came with a very light performance from her in 'Guess Who's Coming to Dinner.'
I loved Barbara Stanwyck and Katharine Hepburn.
[On her work in "Keep Your Powder Dry"] I didn't want to do it, but they said if I did it they would give me Undercurrent with Robert Taylor. Then they gave Undercurrent to Katharine Hepburn, so I left MGM.
Who is Katharine Hepburn? It took me a long time to create that creature.
Meryl and Katharine Hepburn are probably the two greatest actresses of this and the last century.
[On Katharine Hepburn's stage performance:] She ran the whole gamut of emotions, from A to B.
I had a small speaking part in 'Coco.' Katharine Hepburn said to me, 'You can act.' Wasn't that nice?
I love watching the old movies. I love Katharine Hepburn. I just adore her and everything that she stood for. I find it interesting watching the likes of Gene Tierney and those classic movies of the '40s.
