Bessie-isms:

*Do not expect to find happiness after you die if you were not willing to work for it while alive. Expect to find another life and the necessity to try even harder next time!

*A good friend may lie a bit to you, to avoid hurting you over some issue. The bad friend tries to lie to you to avoid you finding their evil.

Quotable:

When all is said and done, more is said and done.
