More quotes by Benjamin Franklin
To lengthen thy life, lessen thy meals.
Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin
Let the experiment be made.
Benjamin Franklin
Take time for all things.
Benjamin Franklin
A man is sometimes more generous when he has but a little money than when he has plenty, perhaps through fear of being thought to have but little.
Benjamin Franklin
As charms are nonsense, nonsense is a charm.
Benjamin Franklin
The wise and the brave dares own that he was wrong.
Benjamin Franklin
Before you consult your fancy, consult your purse.
Benjamin Franklin
Watch the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves.
Benjamin Franklin
The ordaining of laws in favor of one part of the nation, to the prejudice and oppression of another, is certainly the most erroneous and mistaken policy. An equal dispensation of protection, rights, privileges, and advantages, is what every part is entitled to, and ought to enjoy.
Benjamin Franklin
Human felicity is produced not as much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen as by little advantages that occur every day.
Benjamin Franklin
Beer is proof that God wants us to be happy
Benjamin Franklin
The US Constitution only guarantees your rights as a citizen, it doesn't guarantee happiness. It may take work, but if you have your rights, happiness is very possible.
Benjamin Franklin
A single man has not nearly the value he would have in a state of union. He is an incomplete animal. He resembles the odd half of a pair of scissors.
Benjamin Franklin
He's the best physician that knows the worthlessness of most medicines.
Benjamin Franklin
Remember, Sir, that [England] began the slave trade!
Benjamin Franklin
I think vital religion has always suffered when orthodoxy is more regarded than virtue. The scriptures assure me that at the last day we shall not be examined on what we thought but what we did.
Benjamin Franklin
Glass, China, and Reputation, are easily cracked, and never well mended.
Benjamin Franklin
When the well is dry, people know the worth of water. [so appreciate what you have while you have it]
Benjamin Franklin
If we lose our Money, it gives us some Concern. If we are cheated or robb'd of it, we are angry: But Money lost may be found what we are robb'd of may be restored: The Treasure of Time once lost, can never be recovered yet we squander it as tho' 'twere nothing worth, or we had no Use for it.
Benjamin Franklin
