Benjamin Franklin
I would rather have it said, 'He lived usefully,' than, 'He died rich.'
Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin
Cold & cunning come from the north: But cunning sans wisdom is nothing worth.
Benjamin Franklin
And where is the Prince who can afford to so cover his country with troops for its defense, as that ten thousand men descending from the clouds, might not in many places do an infinite deal of mischief, before a force could be brought together to repel them?
Benjamin Franklin
