Bessie-isms:

*Never declare victory before entering the battlefield. Being defeated is bad enough, without also being  revealed as a pompous ass. A stupid one.

*Tyrants all delude themselves into thinking they act for the common good. Only if the kill themselves would this be true.

Quotable:

Any supervisor worth his salt would rather deal with people who attempt too much than those who try too little.
