More quotes by Benjamin Franklin
'tis his honesty that brought upon him the character of a heretic.
Benjamin Franklin
Words may show a man's wit but actions his meaning.
Benjamin Franklin
Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other.
Benjamin Franklin
A ship under sail and a big-bellied woman, Are the handsomest two things that can be seen common.
Benjamin Franklin
In prosperous fortunes be modest and wise, The greatest may fall, and the lowest may rise: But insolent People that fall in disgrace, Are wretched and nobody pities their Case.
Benjamin Franklin
The same man cannot be both Friend and Flatterer.
Benjamin Franklin
The way to wealth depends on just two words, industry and frugality.
Benjamin Franklin
Private property...is the creature of society and is subject to the calls of that society even to the last farthing.
Benjamin Franklin
It is the duty of mankind on all suitable occasions to acknowledge their dependence on the Divine Being.
Benjamin Franklin
I know not which lives more unnatural lives, obeying husbands, or commanding wives.
Benjamin Franklin
When religion is good, it will take care of itself. When it is not able to take care of itself, and God does not see fit to take care of it, so that it has to appeal to the civil power for support, it is evidence to my mind that its cause is a bad one.
Benjamin Franklin
A man is not completely born until he is dead. Why then should we grieve that a new child is born among the immortals, a new member added to their happy society?
Benjamin Franklin
Make the best use of both time and money. Add industry and frugal dealings if they pay very well and if you're free to it.
Benjamin Franklin
If you can't pay for a thing, don't buy it. If you can't get paid for it, don't sell it. Do this, and you will have calm and drowsy nights, with all of the good business you have now and none of the bad. If you have time, don't wait for time.
Benjamin Franklin
A wicked Hero will turn his back to an innocent coward.
Benjamin Franklin
Why should Pennsylvania, founded by the English, become a Colony of Aliens, who will shortly be so numerous as to Germanize us instead of our Anglifying them, and will never adopt our Language or Customs, any more than they can acquire our Complexion.
Benjamin Franklin
An old man in a house is a good sign.
Benjamin Franklin
What is without us has no connection with happiness, only so far as the preservation of our lives and health depends upon it. . . . Happiness springs immediately from the mind.
Benjamin Franklin
He does not possess wealth it possesses him.
Benjamin Franklin
A full Belly brings forth every Evil.
Benjamin Franklin
