Bessie-isms:
*After a lifetime of using lies and excuses almost as an art form, it must be a real shock to die and reach a realm where lies and excuses are as useless as money from Pakistan is in a bar in Georgia.
*Do not criticize the fox for being sly and sneaky; these attributes are his nature, and serve him, the timid creature he is, well. Save your ire for your dog, who suddenly starts acting like a fox. This violation of a dogs nature may well be a sign of something sinister and unpleasant.
Quotable:
Many might go to heaven with half the labor they go to hell.
