Bessie-isms:

*Just as one afflicted with trials needs to experience some good fortune occasionally, one afflicted with much good fortune needs some affliction now and then, so they will know how special the good fortune really is.

*If you know love, and have it in your life, a small hovel seems like a castle far more than a castle seems to one who lacks the least trace of love.

Quotable:

It is the wretchedness of being rich that you have to live with rich people.
