More quotes by Benjamin Franklin
A friend in need is a friend indeed!
Benjamin Franklin
Our new Constitution is now established, and has an appearance that promises permanency but in the world nothing can be said to be certain except death and taxes.
Benjamin Franklin
Flesh eating is unprovoked murder.
Benjamin Franklin
Poverty, Poetry, and new Titles of Honor, make Men ridiculous
Benjamin Franklin
They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin
Oh the wonderful knowledge to be found in the stars. Even the smallest things are written there ... if you had but skill to read.
Benjamin Franklin
There's no gain, without pain.
Benjamin Franklin
Let every fart count as a peal of thunder for liberty. Let every fart remind the nation of how much it has let pass out of its control. It is a small gesture, but one that can be very effective - especially in a large crowd. So fart, and if you must, fart often. But always fart without apology. Fart for freedom, fart for liberty - and fart proudly.
Benjamin Franklin
La pereza anda tan despacio que la pobreza no tarda en alcanzarla.
Benjamin Franklin
He that speaks ill of the mare will buy her.
Benjamin Franklin
One good husband is worth two good wives, for the scarcer things are, the more they are valued.
Benjamin Franklin
The wise and the brave dares own that he was wrong.
Benjamin Franklin
It is very imprudent to deprive America of any of her privileges. If her commerce and friendship are of any importance to you, they are to be had on no other terms than leaving her in the full enjoyment of her rights.
Benjamin Franklin
If you want something done, ask a busy person.
Benjamin Franklin
Joy doesn't exist in the world, it exists in us.
Benjamin Franklin
Those who are fear'd, are hated.
Benjamin Franklin
The way to wealth is as plain as the way to market. It depends chiefly on two words, industry and frugality: that is, waste neither time nor money, but make the best use of both. Without industry and frugality nothing will do, and with them everything.
Benjamin Franklin
Pride is as loud a beggar as want, and a great deal more saucy. When you have bought one fine thing, you must buy ten more, that your appearance may be all of a piece but it is easier to suppress the first desire than to satisfy all that follow it.
Benjamin Franklin
Many a man thinks he is buying pleasure, when he is really selling himself to it.
Benjamin Franklin
An Episcopalian divine once told the Pope that the only difference between their denominations was that the Church of Rome is infallible and the Church of England is never in the wrong.
Benjamin Franklin
