My favorite Hepburn moment is in 'Sabrina,' when she steps off a boat in white shorts and a plaid shirt. Chic, classic, and unfussy.

Famous quotes and sentences with the word Hepburn.
1
Amy Acker
I've always been obsessed with Audrey Hepburn.
2
Dianna Agron
Growing up I wanted to be a mixture of Audrey Hepburn and Lucille Ball. Apparently I told my mum when I was eight that I wanted to be an actor.
3
Dianna Agron
What I fell in love with as a child was 'My Fair Lady,' 'Funny Face,' 'American in Paris,' and 'Singin' in the Rain.' Just perfect movies to me and I was dancing. I started ballet when I was three. And I fell in love with those movies and fell in love with Audrey Hepburn and Leslie Caron.
4
Ethel Barrymore
The face of Garbo is an Idea, that of Hepburn an Event.
5
Emilia Clarke
My favorite Hepburn moment is in 'Sabrina,' when she steps off a boat in white shorts and a plaid shirt. Chic, classic, and unfussy.
6
Lily Collins
I think it's just important to not judge people based on their physicality because it's really about personality and people's hearts and souls. That's what drew me to Audrey Hepburn who is kind of like my icon.
7
Anne-Marie Duff
I didn't really know anything about Margot Fonteyn. I'd never really been a ballet child, so I had no idea what an incredibly huge icon she was, not just in terms of a creative icon - she was also a style icon. I had no idea she was up there with Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Onassis in terms of that kind of image.
8
Sophie Ellis-Bextor
For every person that says I'm the new Audrey Hepburn, someone else says that I look like an alien.
9
Hallie Ephron
Phoebe Wolkind Ephron cracked wise like Dorothy Parker and looked like Katharine Hepburn.
10
Betty Friedan
We need to see men and women as equal partners, but it's hard to think of movies that do that. When I talk to people, they think of movies of forty-five years ago! Hepburn and Tracy!
