Quotes

 * The best parts are the heavies. The hero is usually someone who has really nothing to do. He comes out on top, but it's the heavy who has all the fun.
 * From a syndicated article, as cited in "100 movies — and all horrors", The Herald-News (Newsweek Feature Service, 30 July 1971), p. 21


 * I think if I have any regret at all about my theatrical career, it was that I didn’t stay longer in the theater. It was very hard to do because the transportation problem was quite serious. It took thirty-five hours to fly out. So you couldn’t really commute to the movie business the way you can do in London. But I wanted to be in movies, because I loved movies. I was a big movie fan. And still am and always have been.

 * In a world where slaughter and vicious crimes are daily occurrences, a good ghoulish movie is comic relief.
 * Undated quote, as cited in "Vincent Price, Noted Actor Of Dark Roles, Dies at 82", The New York Times (October 27, 1993)
