Famous quotes containing the word vermont:

    “Anything I can say about New Hampshire
    Will serve almost as well about Vermont,
    Excepting that they differ in their mountains.
    The Vermont mountains stretch extended straight;
    New Hampshire mountains curl up in a coil.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
