American polymath, a leading writer, scientist, inventor, statesman, diplomat, printer, publisher, and political philosopher
In the affairs of this world, men are saved not by faith, but by the want of it.
To Follow by faith alone is to follow blindly.
In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.
Some people die at 25 and aren't buried until 75.
I look upon death to be as necessary to our constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning.
A penny saved is a penny earned.
He that is of the opinion money will do everything may well be suspected of doing everything for money.
Money has never made man happy, nor will it, there is nothing in its nature to produce happiness. The more of it one has the more one wants.
Time is money.
If you would know the value of money, go and try to borrow some.
