“The Amish are islands of sanity in a whirlpool of change.”
Nancy Sleeth, Almost Amish

“To air dry clothes by choice is countercultural. And who, more than any other group in twenty-first-century America, is both countercultural and committed to air drying clothes? Has intact families? Healthy communities? Gardens, home-cooked meals, and uncluttered homes? Restrained use of technology, strong local economies, and almost nonexistent debt?

All of which led to my epiphany: few of us can become Amish, but all of us can become almost Amish.”
Nancy Sleeth, Almost Amish: One Woman's Quest for a Slower, Simpler, More Sustainable Life

“Proverbs 22:6—“Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it.”
Nancy Sleeth, Almost Amish: One Woman's Quest for a Slower, Simpler, More Sustainable Life
