Bessie-isms:

*The car you get rid of because you think it’s worn out will always run another 100,000 miles for the new owner.

*If a man must argue with his wife, he would be well served to appologize first, and then sit down. She will still wish to go on, and present all of her points, but his early display of the white flag will save time and create a better tone over all.

Quotable:

A pessimist is a man who thinks all women are bad. An optimist is one who hopes they are.
