Fart for freedom, fart for liberty - and fart proudly.
Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin
Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see.
Benjamin Franklin
A penny saved is a penny earned.
Benjamin Franklin
Most people return small favors, acknowledge medium ones and repay greater ones - with ingratitude.
Benjamin Franklin
Life's Tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin
All who think cannot but see there is a sanction like that of religion which binds us in partnership in the serious work of the world.
Benjamin Franklin
