Quotes: Benjamin Franklin

Preparation: For the want of a nail, the shoe was lose; for the want of a shoe the horse was lose; and for the want of a horse the rider was lost, being overtaken and slain by the enemy, all for the want of care about a horseshoe nail.

If a man empties his purse into his head, no man can take it away from him. An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest.

Have a great week... (See last week)
