What is vincent?

Famous quotes containing the word vincent:

    Life in itself
    Is nothing,
    An empty cup, a flight of uncarpeted stairs.
    It is not enough that yearly, down this hill,
    April
    Comes like an idiot, babbling and strewing flowers.
    —Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)

    If Mr. Vincent Price were to be co-starred with Miss Bette Davis in a story by Mr. Edgar Allan Poe directed by Mr. Roger Corman, it could not fully express the pent-up violence and depravity of a single day in the life of the average family.
    Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)

    Pity me that the heart is slow to learn
    What the swift mind beholds at every turn.
    —Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
