More From Benjamin Franklin
- "We are more thoroughly an enlightened people, with respect to our political interests, than perhaps any other under heaven. Every man among us reads, and is so easy in his circumstances as to have leisure for conversations of improvement and for acquiring information."
- "Leisure is the time for doing something useful. This leisure the diligent person will obtain the lazy one never."
- "At twenty years of age the will reigns; at thirty, the wit; and at forty, the judgment."
