Justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those who are.

The height of foolishness is to discard an opportunity without full investigation

Common sense without education, is better than education without common sense.

The rapid progress of the sciences makes me sorry, at times, that I was born so soon. Imagine the power that man will have over matter, a few hundred years from now. We may learn how to remove gravity from large masses, and float them over great distances. Agriculture will double its produce with less labor. All diseases will surely be cured... even old age. If only the moral sciences could be improved as well. Perhaps men would cease to be wolves to one another... and human beings could learn to be human.

Benjamin Franklin 1856 quotes

The man who does things makes...

The man who does things makes mistakes, but he doesn't make the biggest mistake of all-doing nothing.

Instead of cursing the darkness, light a candle.

The best tranquilizer is a clear conscience.

They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Reading makes a full man, meditation a profound man, discourse a clear man.

Benjamin Franklin 1856 quotes

You must always be prepared. ...

You must always be prepared. Make sure to look at things from all angles. If you are not prepared you will fail.

Benjamin Franklin 1856 quotes

The best thing to give to you...

The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all others, charity.

Benjamin Franklin 1856 quotes

When you get into a tight pla...

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
When you're down to nothing, God is up to something. The faithful see the invisible, believe the incredible and then receive the impossible.
Where liberty dwells there is my country.

Benjamin Franklin 1856 quotes

He who would trade liberty fo...

He who would trade liberty for some temporary security, deserves neither liberty nor security.

Benjamin Franklin 1856 quotes

Freedom is not a gift bestowed upon us by other men, but a right that belongs to us by the laws of God and nature.

Benjamin Franklin 1856 quotes

This [the U.S. Constitution] ...

This [the U.S. Constitution] is likely to be administered for a course of years and then end in despotism... when the people shall become so corrupted as to need despotic government, being incapable of any other.

Benjamin Franklin 1856 quotes

To find out a girl's faults, ...

To find out a girl's faults, praise her to her girlfriends.

Benjamin Franklin 1856 quotes

Here is my Creed. I believe in one God, creator of the Universe. That he governs it by his Providence. That he ought to be worshiped. That the most acceptable service we render him is doing good to his other children. That the soul of Man is immortal, and will be treated with justice in another life respecting its conduct in this.

I never knew a man who was good at making excuses who was good at anything else.
