Bessie-isms:

*If you refuse to talk to your teens about sex, their friends or lovers will do it instead. To avoid that monumental ignorance, do your job! You wanted to be a parent, and this is one of the critical parts of it.

*Love is more desirable the less of it you have.

Quotable:

The upper classes are a nation’s past; the middle class is its future.

Ayn Rand
