Bessie-isms and Quotable for September 15, 2017

Bessie-isms:

*A human being who feels ugly will not improve their appearance by getting naked. Try smiling instead.

*While regretting something you’ve done shows that you now have learned better, dwelling on it, wallowing in said regret will only take your focus away from using that new understanding to live a better life. So don’t.

Quotable:

It is by the goodness of God that in our country we have those three unspeakably precious things; freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice either.

Mark Twain
