Bessie-isms:

*Why do you accept the dreams others push onto you? You don’t like second hand clothes, and second rate beliefs; don’t you think your dreams might be more important?

*Never pass up a chance to learn something new. Life is full of challenges, and you never can know what bit of knowledge will be useful to save you.

Quotable:

Lose no time; be always employed in something useful.

Benjamin Franklin
