Bessie-isms:
*It’s hard not to envy those who have things you desire. But do you also envy the problems and misery those ones have? Maybe they have less to envy than you think?
*Generally, a child has a reason for crying and whining. Adults don’t seem so simple, often choosing to cry and complain over minor or pointless things, or worse, just to gain attention. It may work for kids, but is less reliable for adults.
Quotable:
All cruelty springs from weakness.
Seneca
