Famous quotes containing the words saint and/or vincent:

    Child in the womb,
    Or saint on a tomb
    Which way shall I lie
    To fall asleep?
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Lincoln, six feet one in his stocking feet,
    The lank man, knotty and tough as a hickory rail,
    Whose hands were always too big for white-kid gloves,
    Whose wit was a coonskin sack of dry, tall tales,
    Whose weathered face was homely as a plowed field.
    —Stephen Vincent BenĂ©t (1898–1943)
