“The jet is a great invention. Besides being a world shrinker, par excellence, it has much of the quality and charm of a roller coaster. And it's big. Once, years ago, on a ten-stop, cross-country air trip, I turned to the man next to me and said, quite genuinely: "What keeps these big goddam things up in the air?”

“What do you do when you find yourself out in a lie—even a white one? Well, one thing for sure, you don't put on black, you don't mourn and beat out a staccato mea culpa on your breast. You go! Get the hell out! Take a chance! Forget you're an American, living in the suburbs of success, hoping to move into the big city...You go!”

“Right now I am thinking of writing another cookbook. All cookbooks have a gimmick, and mine will be that it contains recipes that I have invented and named after famous people. Some of them are:
Brisket of Brynner (very lean meat)
Carson Casserole (it's got everything on it)
Barbecued Walters
Marinated Maude
Roasted Rhoda
King King Curry (it will feed about eight thousand people)
Fricassee of Fonzi
Pickled Rickles
Raquel Relish
Leftovers à la Gabors”
― Vincent Price, Vincent Price, his movies, his plays, his life
