"Keep thy shop, and thy shop will..." - Quote by Benjamin Franklin

“Ben Franklin was a little stout later in life and it was said that in Paris a young woman, tapping him on his protruding abdomen, said,"Dr. Franklin, if this were on a woman, we'd know what to think." And Franklin replied,"Half an hour ago, Mademoiselle, it was on a woman, and now what do you think?"”

“He that drinks fast, pays slow.”

“You might not be able to outthink, outmarket or outspend your competition, but you can outwork them.”

“I owe my success to the fact that I never had a clock in my workroom.”

“People will work eight hours a day for pay, 10 hours a day for a good boss, and 24 hours a day for a good cause!”

“If I was down to the last dollar of my marketing budget I'd spend it on PR!”

“I think that there is nothing, not even crime, more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself than this incessant business.”

“Once a month, go to lunch with someone who knows more about your business than you do.”
