Benjamin Franklin
A child thinks 20 shillings and 20 years can never be spent.
Benjamin Franklin
Do you love life? Then don't waste time, because time is life!
Benjamin Franklin
Scarcely have I ever heard or read the introductory phrase, I may say without vanity, but some striking and characteristic instance of vanity has immediately followed.
Benjamin Franklin
He that cannot obey, cannot command.
Benjamin Franklin
Beware of the young doctor and the old barber.
Benjamin Franklin
Security without liberty is called prison.
Benjamin Franklin
A full Belly makes a dull Brain: The Muses starve in a Cook's Shop.
Benjamin Franklin
He who gives up freedom for safety deserves neither.
Benjamin Franklin
Would you persuade, speak of interest, not of reason.
Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin
Time eateth all things, could old poets say, The times are chang'd, our times drink all away.
Benjamin Franklin
Many dishes many diseases, Many medicines few cures.
Benjamin Franklin
The way to secure peace is to be prepared for war. They that are on their guard, and appear ready to receive their adversaries, are in much less danger of being attacked, than the supine, secure, and negligent.
Benjamin Franklin
Vice knows she is ugly, so puts on her mask.
Benjamin Franklin
If everyone is thinking alike, then no one is thinking.
Benjamin Franklin

Where a government takes proper measures to protect the people under its care, such a proceeding might have been thought both unnecessary and unjustifiable: But here it is quite the Reverse.
Benjamin Franklin
