Famous quotes containing the words latin and/or vulgate:
“Is there no Latin word for Tea? Upon my soul, if I had known that I would have let the vulgar stuff alone.”

“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)
