Bessie-isms:

*No criticism will ever be acceptable to you if you know the one doing the criticizing is less competent than you are!

*Ladies, when your man says, I love you, you can’t be sure if he loves all of you or just his favorite parts. Don’t waste your time being angry, as he likely doesn’t know either.

Quotable:

In the long run, the sword is beaten by the mind.
