Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin
Those things that hurt, instruct.
Benjamin Franklin
People who are wrapped up in themselves make small packages.
Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin
He that would travel much, should eat little.
Benjamin Franklin
What more valuable than Gold? Diamonds. Than Diamonds? Virtue.
Benjamin Franklin
Don't go to the doctor with every distemper, nor to the lawyer with every quarrel, nor to the pot for every thirst.
Benjamin Franklin
The eye of the master will do more work than both his hands.
Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin
It is ill-manners to silence a fool and cruelty to let him go on
Benjamin Franklin
Alas, I know if I ever became truly humble, I would be proud of it.
Benjamin Franklin
We can defer, yet time is most certainly not.
Benjamin Franklin
The English love an insult. It's their only test of a man's sincerity.
Benjamin Franklin
Some men grow mad by studying much to know, But who grows mad by studying good to grow.
Benjamin Franklin
