Bessie-isms:

*You can dress up the outside of a human easily, but making the inside beautiful is beyond the efforts of any but the one you’d like to improve.

We cry when we’re sad, cry when we’re overjoyed, even cry when frustrated, scared or laugh too much. Apparently tears are an emotional pressure relief valve, that keeps us from exploding when feelings get too intense.

*Quotable:

Society is always taken by surprise at any new example of common sense.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
