Wide Country

Wide Country1962



[first lines]

[indicating a scarecrow with a beard attached]

Mitch Guthrie:
There's the Amish welcoming committee right where it was last year. Looks like one of them brothers, don't it?

Andy Guthrie:
Do the crows around here caw in Pennsylvania Dutch?

Mitch Guthrie:
If they got any sense, they'd keep quiet. Andy, these people are the best farmers in the world, do you know that? All they want to do is be left alone. They don't drink, they don't smoke, they don't ride in automobiles, they don't want no part of radio or television. Happiest people I ever saw.

Andy Guthrie:
What do they do for excitement?

Mitch Guthrie:
They don't want no excitement. They just mosey along the way they have for the last hundred years or so... slow and easy.

[a horse with an Amish rider sprints past the Guthrie's station wagon]

Andy Guthrie:
Slow and easy, huh?
