Bessie-isms:

*A person who has money is often a slave to it. But a person who will fret and worry over a million dollars, would likely fret over a twenty dollar bill just as much.

*It seems many more are nowadays inclined to play Scrooge rather than Santa.

Quotable:

In the ordinary business of life, industry can do anything which genius can do, and very many things which it cannot.

Henry Ward Beecher
