The Town

Famous quotes containing the word town:

“And oh, I knew, I knew,
And said out loud, I couldn’t bide the smother
And heat so close in; but the thought of all
The woods and town on fire by me, and all
The town turned out to fight for me that held me.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“A town is saved, not more by the righteous men in it than by the woods and swamps that surround it.”
