Benjamin Franklin – Words of Wisdom
Some of the best lessons I have learned in life come from people I never met.
I would like to share some of the ‘words of wisdom’ that I have picked up over the years.
Benjamin Franklin said:
Wise men don’t need advice. Fools won’t take it.
(I tried long ago to accept the wisdom of people I respected so I wouldn’t have to learn life’s lessons over again, and instead learn some new lessons of my own.) 
Bewareof little expenses. A small leak will sink a great ship.
(My wife is still trying to teach me this.)
The heart of a fool is in his mouth, but the mouth of a wise man is in his heart.
(sometimes we need to listen to our heart)
He was so learned that he could name a horse in nine languages; so ignorant that he bought a cow to ride on.
(hah! always learning but never knowing the truth is how the Bible puts it.)
If a man could have his wishes, he would double his troubles.
(What do you wish for?)
What’s your favorite quote? and why?
