Ben Franklin Quotes• Fish and visitors stink after three days.• Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead. • Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy,
wealthy, and wise. • He that lieth down with Dogs, shall rise up with Fleas. • Those who in quarrels interpose, must often wipe a
bloody nose. • Glass, China, and Reputation, are easily crack'd, and
never well mended.• An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Ben Franklin Quotes• We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang
separately.• Courteous Reader
Remember that time is money.• There was never a good war or a bad peace.• 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.
• Genius without education is like silver in the mine. • A penny saved is a penny earned.
