Bessie-isms:

*If you manage to acquire a measure of wealth, give it away when you die, but don’t plague your children with it! They have not earned it, and giving them undeserved riches will only damage their will to go earn their own!

*The good person does what’s right, not because they fear God’s criticism for doing wrong, but because they can’t bear to face their own!

Quotable:

Justice without force is powerless; force without justice is tyrannical.

Blaise Pascal
