Bessie-isms:

*They say a wise man wishes to learn and understand. But truly, the wisest man seeks to be loved, and uses what ever knowledge and understanding he has to attain such a thing.

*One suspects that instead of your hospital treatment being for your good, it is mostly tailored for the convenience of the doctors and staff, and the profit of the hospital. But cheer up, your insurance company just wants you to die quickly!

Quotable:

Some are bent with toil, and some get crooked trying to avoid it.
