Quote of the Day (Laura Ingalls Wilder, on ‘Some Old-Fashioned Things’)

“Some old-fashioned things like fresh air and sunshine are hard to beat. In our mad rush for progress and modern improvements let’s be sure we take along with us all the old-fashioned things worth while.”— American author, journalist, and teacher Laura Ingalls Wilder (1867-1957), A Family Collection: Life on the Farm and in the Country, Making a Home; the Ways of the World, a Woman's Role (1993)
