bonaventures: People have asked me what was it about Spence that made me stay with him for nearly thirty years. And this is somehow impossible for me to answer. I honestly don’t know. I can only say that I could never have left him. He was there— I was his. Katharine Hepburn | Me: Stories of My Life

Katharine Hepburn | Me: Stories of My Life


❝I took a script to Spencer Tracy. I had gotten a ten-minute lecture about how I was supposed to go around the back to the gardener’s shack and leave it with him. Well, I screwed up and knocked on the front door. Then I saw Katharine Hepburn through the window, doing the dishes. I thought, Oh, gosh, I’m getting fired. They really liked their privacy. Hepburn came out, wiping her hands on a towel. She smiled, said, “Thank you very much,” took the script, turned around, and called out, “Spensah. Spensah, your script is here.❞
(William Morris agent Larry Fitzgerald, from an interview in David Rensin’s The Mailroom: Hollywood History from the Bottom Up (via lynnelemon))

fuckyeahspencertracy: Spencer hated the tradition of the Saturday night bath, and the task of getting him to take one fell to his Aunt Mary. “She’d try to round him up and get him in the tub,” Frank said. “Spencer was always pretty hard to find. She’d literally have to push him to the bathroom, and then she wouldn’t hear anything. She’d ask Spencer, ‘Are you taking a bath in there?’ He’d say yes, but he’d be sitting on the floor fully clothed—even his hat still on his head—splashing the water with his hands.” Finally, it was decided the boys would do better under the no-nonsense supervision of Grandmother Brown, and Spencer wore a collection of scapular medals for the occasion. “What are all these things?” she demanded, yanking at them. “Don’t take ’em of my neck!” he exclaimed. “You can’t take those off! They’re holy!” Her expression must have told him she thought he was crazy, for he took them out and started to explain: “Well, this is so you won’t get drowned… and this is so you won’t get killed… and this one is so you won’t commit a sin…” [Spencer Tracy: A Biography]

Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get - only with what you are expecting to give— which is everything. -KH

The only thing that matters is what they feel, and how much they feel, for each other. And if it’s half of what we felt— that’s everything. -ST
