Bessie-isms:

*Slander that hides behind the label of free speech is not worthy of respect or tolerance. Just make sure your objections to what’s spoken is that it’s false and not true! The truth, no matter how wicked, can never be considered slander.

*If you would spoil a child, do so with love, not things. Things need to be earned always,  love never.

Quotable:

The best of seers is he who guesses well.
