Benjamin Franklin's books

 TimeFavorites

Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead.

Earn money by taking surveys! International offer!

He that lives upon hope will die fasting.

In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.

All mankind is divided into three classes: those that are immovable, those that are movable, and those that move.

One today is worth two tomorrows.

Well done is better than well said.

Earn money by taking surveys! International offer!

There never was a good War, or a bad Peace.

God heals and the doctor takes the fee.

God helps them that help themselves.

When you are finished changing, you`re finished.

Beware of the young doctor and the old barber.

There was never a good knife made of bad steel.

If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins.

Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half-shut afterwards.

At 20 years of age the Will reigns; at 30 the Wit; at 40 the Judgment.
