More quotes by Benjamin Franklin
'tis his honesty that brought upon him the character of a heretic.
Benjamin Franklin
God helps those who help themselves.
Benjamin Franklin
Governments having failed the people, the people are entirely justified in assuming for themselves an essential role in government. Where a government takes proper measures to protect the people under its care, such a proceeding might have been thought both unnecessary and unjustifiable: But here it is quite the Reverse.
Benjamin Franklin
A countryman between two lawyers is like a fish between two cats.
Benjamin Franklin
Those who govern, having much business on their hands, do not generally like to take the trouble of considering and carrying into execution new projects. The best public measures are therefore seldom adopted from previous wisdom, but forced by the occasion.
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
Security without liberty is called prison.
Benjamin Franklin
I should have no objection to go over the same life from its beginning to the end: requesting only the advantage authors have, of correcting in a second edition the faults of the first.
Benjamin Franklin
Where there's no law, there's no bread.
Benjamin Franklin
Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters.
Benjamin Franklin
To lengthen thy life, lessen thy meals.
Benjamin Franklin
It is the religion of ignorance that tyranny begins.
Benjamin Franklin
One today is worth two tomorrows.
Benjamin Franklin
The borrower is a slave to the lender and the debtor to the creditor.
Benjamin Franklin
Watch the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves.
Benjamin Franklin
I fear the man who drinks water and so remembers this morning what the rest of us said last night
Benjamin Franklin
Grace thou thy house and let not that grace thee.
Benjamin Franklin
Innocence is its own defense.
Benjamin Franklin
Mary's mouth cost her nothing for she never opens it but at others' expense.
Benjamin Franklin
Willows are weak, but they bind the Faggot.
Benjamin Franklin
