Bessie-isms:
*If you’d resist the urge to speak all the petty, spiteful, unkind gossipy and wicked things you normally do, you be mostly silent, but much better regarded.
*Smile as often as possible; it offends all the dour and miserable people around you.
Quotable:
There is no fruit which is not bitter before it is ripe.
Publilius Syrus
