Think of these things, whence you came, where you are going, and to whom you must account.
Benjamin Franklin
Watch the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves.
Benjamin Franklin
There is scarce a king in a hundred who would not, if he could, follow the example of Pharoah - get first all the people's money, then all their lands, and then make them and their children servants forever.
Benjamin Franklin
Remember that credit is money.
Benjamin Franklin
A light purse is a heavy curse.
Benjamin Franklin
La pereza anda tan despacio que la pobreza no tarda en alcanzarla.
