The Vermont Notebook Quotes

“Man dreams of putting penis between girl's boobs. Is all mankind diminished? Or strengthened? What do you want? I want a pair of orange pants and a pair of orange and white shoes to go with them. I know nothing will work out unless I get them, but I also know that if I do get them I probably won't wear them to a dogfight.”
― John Ashbery, The Vermont Notebook

“Think spring. We do. Slow down.”
― John Ashbery, Joe Brainard, The Vermont Notebook
