Famous quotes containing the words clementine and/or vulgate:
“In a cavern, in a canyon,
Excavating for a mine,
Dwelt a miner, ‘Forty-Niner,
And his daughter Clementine.”
—Percy Montross–FU.S. poet. Oh, My Darling Clementine (attributed to Montross)
“The poem goes from the poet’s gibberish to
The gibberish of the vulgate and back again.
Does it move to and fro or is it of both
At once? Is it a luminous flittering
Or the concentration of a cloudy day?”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
