Bessie-isms:

*We throw away many good things, just because we want new. But it isn’t just your appliances and clothes that get abandoned; you toss aside perfectly good relationships because you think a new one will be more fun and exciting.

*How many teachers told you to settle down and pay attention? Did you ever do so, or are you still acting a fool, and learning less than you should?

Quotable:

The circumstances of others seem good to us, while ours seem good to others.

Pubilius Syrus
