Bessie-isms and Quotable for July 14, 2016

Bessie-isms:

*You think the hamster running mindlessly on his wheel is funny, but maybe you should look closer at your own life before you mock the poor rodent.

*Chirping birds, the sound of insects in a meadow, warm sunlight, all these touch something deep within your soul. If you can’t remember what they are like, you need to do something about that!

Quotable:

We have been God-like in our planned breeding of our domesticated plants and animals, but we have been rabbit-like in our unplanned breeding of ourselves.

Arnold Toynbee
