Katharine Hepburn Art Quotations

All my life, I've stayed at parties too long because I didn't know when to go.

Bogart was like Henry Fonda - proud and happy to be an actor.

Silence the artist and you have silenced the most articulate voice the people have.

Life gets harder the smarter you get, the more you know.

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.

You can't just be talented: You have to be terribly smart and energetic and ruthless. You also have to become necessary to people, by working hard and well and bringing more than your bones and your skin to the project. Don't just show up. Transform the work, yourself, and everybody around you. Be needed. Be interesting. Be something no one else can be--and consistently.
