Bessie-isms:

*Humans enjoy talking. Un unfortunately large number also like hearing themselves talk, far more than their discourse would justify!

*My favorite teachers when I was in school are not my favorite ones now. Back then, I favored the easy ones, but now know it was the hard ones who did me good.

Quotable:

There’s not the least thing that can be said or done, but people will talk and find fault.

Miguel de Cervantes
