Fear not death for the sooner we die, the longer we shall be immortal
American polymath and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Franklin was a leading author, printer, political theorist, politician, freemason, postmaster, scientist, inventor, humorist, civic activist, statesman, and diplomat
The heart of man is made to reconcile the most glaring contradictions
Don’t talk about your good health in front of sick
Live as if your were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever
Broadly speaking short words are best and the old words when short, are best of all
One who talks too much makes the most mistakes
There is no friend as loyal as a book
