Quote by Katharine Hepburn, (attributed)

What you see before you is the result of a lifetime of chocolate.Additional note: Quoteland has received the following communication from John Philip Dayton regarding this quotation: I knew Katharine Hepburn well - produced her last three movies - not sure where you got the quote What you see before you, my friend, is the result of a lifetime of chocolate - but it does not sound like Kate - she might have said it, but without the my friend. This is a phrase I have never, ever, heard her utter, and it would be highly uncharacteristic of her to do so - as far as the chocolate part goes, that, indeed is Kate - Sincerely, John Dayton

What you see before you is the result of a lifetime of choco

Summary

According to John Philip Dayton, the producer of Katharine Hepburn's last three movies, he is not certain about the authenticity of the quote. Although Hepburn may have mentioned that what people see before them is the result of a lifetime of chocolate, the addition of the phrase "my friend" does not resonate with her character. However, there is validity to the statement in terms of Hepburn's well-known fondness for chocolate.
