“Tell me something about yourself, and the country you came from,” said the Scarecrow, when she had finished her dinner. So she told him all about Kansas, and how gray everything was there, and how the cyclone had carried her to this queer land of Oz.
The Scarecrow listened carefully, and said, “I cannot understand why you should wish to leave this beautiful country and go back to the dry, gray place you call Kansas.”
“That is because you have no brains,” answered the girl. “No matter how dreary and gray our homes are, we people of flesh and blood would rather live there than in any other country, be it ever so beautiful. There is no place like home.”
L. Frank Baum (1856-1919) American author [Lyman Frank Baum]
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, ch. 4 “The Road Through the Forest” (1900)

"Kansas has joined Texas in the ongoing measles outbreak, with 23 confirmed cases across six counties. Of those cases, 20 are in unvaccinated patients, and all but two are children.
On March 13, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment confirmed the state’s first measles case since 2018."
