"Vincent was so funny. I told him everytime I met him, 'You missed your calling. You should have been a comedian. You are just the funniest man I've ever met.' He just cracked me up all the time."
~Cassandra Peterson "Elvira"
"In his youth, on Broadway, and then in Hollywood, Vincent Price demonstrated a brilliant acting ability. The talent he displayed in more mainstream movies carried over into the horror pictures but was demonstrated in many other avenues. The horror films I made with Vincent were among the finest films he made, but they must be remembered as only one portion of his career."
~Roger Corman
"It's as much fun to scare as to be scared."
~Vincent Price
"One of the most incredible moments I've ever had was sitting in Vincent's trailer, and I was showing him this first-edition book I have of the complete works of Poe with really amazing illustrations. Vincent was going nuts over the drawings, and he started talking about The Tomb of Ligeia; then he closed the book and began to recite it to me in this beautiful voice, filling the room with huge sounds. Such passion! I looked in the book later, and it was verbatim. Word perfect. It was a great moment, I'll never forget that."
~Johnny Depp
"No question - Vincent Price - not because he was the most villanious
of the characters, but just because it meant that for however long he
would be shooting with us we would be in the company of an incredibly bright, funny, erudite and yes - sexy man telling wonderful stories and imparting interesting information during that 'down time' one lives through on a set while technicians take over and actors are left to their own devices for spending time."
~Yvonne Craig (Batgirl), when asked who her favorite Batman villain was
"Vincent was the most gentle, wonderful man I've ever met, so for me to think of him as a villain is impossible. He had an incredible voice, an incredible presence. I only have dear and admirable thoughts of him. He was the genuine article."
~Dennis Hopper
"One was always awed by Vincent, one always felt, my gosh, here was a man one could listen to, and give pause."
~Angela Lansbury
"He was a laughing man; he had a lot of mischief and humor in him, always. And he had a good, self-deprecating sense of humor....he was one of the most charming and one of the funniest men that I met..."
~Gregory Peck
"Hell of a nice guy. Enchanting fellow; couldn't have been nicer. I loved working with Vincent."
~Douglas Fairbanks
"A man who limits his interests, limits his life."
~Vincent Price
"I found out how little I had learned at college, which I think an awful lot of us do...Continued learning is the true key to all existence."
