We Like What He Knew

Vincent Price examines his art collection in 1944

“Periods of discovery about yourself are seldom fun. It’s tough to realize how little you know just when you think you ought to know a lot, and that period immediately after graduation from college, when you suddenly realize for the first time than ‘commencement’ means beginning, and actually you are just beginning to learn — to live — it comes as a terrible blow to your ego. You become aware that all you really learned at college was HOW to learn and that continued learning is the true key to all existence. That is its real importance.”

 — Vincent Price, I Like What I Know
