Bessie-isms:

*In sports, winning may not be everything, but if you state losing, it will quickly feel like everything.

*Paddling a child will extinguish more bad behavior in a child than a hundred time outs. Making a child sit quietly just lets them think of new ways to misbehave, and gets them well rested to do so.

Quotable:

Every thing that is done in the world, is done by hope.
