Bessie-isms:

*You tolerate a lot more dust and dirt when you’re the one doing the cleaning. If you had a maid, you’d be a fanatic clean freak!

*Denying teens something they like as a punishment is not apt to be nearly as effective as making them do something they consider work. Teens hate work, in case you didn’t know!

Quotable:

I am not young enough to know everything.

James M. Barrie
