Clementine Vulgate

Famous quotes containing the words clementine and/or vulgate:

    Light she was and like a fairy,
    And her shoes were number nine;
    Percy Montross, U.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)
