Quote of the Day

"I can afford a blemish on my character, but not on my clothes."

Vincent Price as Shelby Carpenter in Laura (1944), probably the most-often quoted film on this blog.

    Well done! Can't wait to hear your review. There are SO many good lines. "Every woman is a dame to you."

    Coincidence. We watched this last Friday. Great film and I can't get the tune out of my head since.

    My favorite Vincent Price quote is from The Abominable Dr. Phibes: "Love means never having to say you're ugly."

    Eliane - isn't it just chock-full of great lines?

    Edward - that's not one I know... yet. Reminds me of a quote I saw on a tshirt with a vintage postcard on the front: "The weather is here, wish you were beautiful." :)
