More quotes by Benjamin Franklin
When you incline to have new clothes, look first well over the old ones, and see if you cannot shift with them another year, either by scouring, mending, or even patching if necessary. Remember, a patch on your coat, and money in your pocket, is better and more creditable, than a writ on your back, and no money to take it off.
Benjamin Franklin
Don't think so much of your own Cunning, as to forget other Men's a Cunning Man is overmatched by a cunning Man and a Half.
Benjamin Franklin
