BENJAMIN FRANKLIN WAS AMERICA'S GREATEST TEACHER (Part 2)

Some of Benjamin Franklin's wise sayings:  

• Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.
• Early to bed and early to rise
  makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.
• Lost time is never found again.
• Without continuous growth and progress,
  such words as improvement, achievement, and success
  have no meaning.
• An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.
• By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
• We are all born ignorant,
  but one must work hard to remain stupid.
• Either write something worth reading
  or do something worth writing.
• It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation
  and only one bad one to lose it.
• In this world nothing can be said to be certain except death and taxes.
• Any fool can criticize and complain,
  and most fools do.
• Well done is better than well said.
• The Constitution only gives people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself.
• Beware of little expenses. A small leak will sink a great ship.
• Be at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a being a better person.
• From a child I was fond of reading, and all the little money that came into my hands was ever laid out in books.
• All mankind is divided into three groups:
  those that are immovable,
  those that are movable,
  and those that move.
  [another way to say the same thing--rather than "movable":
  those that are non-motivated, those that are motivated by others, and those that are self-motivated.]
• Being ignorant is not so much a shame
  as being unwilling to learn.
• Be slow in choosing a friend,
  slower in changing.
• Mine is better than ours.
• It is much easier to suppress a first desire
  than to satisfy those that follow.
