Audrey Hepburn

1 - 2

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
Audrey Hepburn

Everything I learned I learned from the movies.
Audrey Hepburn

For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.
Audrey Hepburn

I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick. I believe in pink. I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and... I believe in miracles.
Audrey Hepburn

I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.
Audrey Hepburn

I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.
Audrey Hepburn

I don't want to be alone, I want to be left alone.
Audrey Hepburn

I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel.
Audrey Hepburn

I heard a definition once: Happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I'd invented it, because it is very true.
Audrey Hepburn

I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person.
Audrey Hepburn

I never think of myself as an icon. What is in other people's minds is not in my mind. I just do my thing.
Audrey Hepburn

I never thought I'd land in pictures with a face like mine.
Audrey Hepburn

I probably hold the distinction of being one movie star who, by all laws of logic, should never have made it. At each stage of my career, I lacked the experience.
Audrey Hepburn

I was asked to act when I couldn't act. I was asked to sing 'Funny Face' when I couldn't sing, and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn't dance - and do all kinds of things I wasn't prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it.
Audrey Hepburn

I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.
Audrey Hepburn

I'm an introvert... I love being by myself, love being outdoors, love taking a long walk with my dogs and looking at the trees, flowers, the sky.
Audrey Hepburn

I'm half-Irish, half-Dutch, and I was born in Belgium. If I was a dog, I'd be in a hell of a mess!
Audrey Hepburn

I've been lucky. Opportunities don't often come along. So, when they do, you have to grab them.
Audrey Hepburn

If I get married, I want to be very married.
Audrey Hepburn

If I'm honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all.

Katharine Hepburn Home Selling for $18 Mil

Katharine Hepburn

Katharine Hepburn's childhood home is on the market for $18 million. The six bedroom, 7.5 bath property sits on Long Island sound in Connecticut and has a private dock and beach.

The Philadelphia Story and Lion in Winter actress grew up in the house, which was built by her family in 1913 in the Fenwick borough of Old Saybrook, notes the real estate blog Zillow. The house was destroyed in a hurricane in 1938 but was rebuilt.

PHOTOS: Hollywood's Notable Deaths

Hepburn died at the estate at the age of 96 in 2003.

The property was purchased in 2004 by construction CEO Frank Sciame and his wife Barbara, who split it into three lots. The parcel with the Hepburn home is selling for $18 million but Sotheby's International Realty is also offering the entire spread for $28 million.

The Hepburn house is being billed as a "completely renovated, 8300 sq. ft house" with "pond opposite side securing privacy. Golf, tennis, boating. Stunning views from this crown jewel!"
