Bessie-isms:

*A gentleman is a person who can be admired for no greater accomplishment than that he is well mannered, kind, decent and reliable, and who would be slightly embarrassed to be even noted for even this.

*Everyone knows they should strive to do what is right, kind and good. Our problems arise because all the other choices seem so attractive in the near term.

Quotable:

Misery loves company, but company does not reciprocate.
