"Be not sick too late, nor well..." - Quote by Benjamin Franklin

“That it is better 100 guilty Persons should escape than that one innocent Person should suffer, is a Maxim that has been long and generally approved.”

“I made the greater progress, from that clearness of head and quicker apprehension which generally attend temperance in eating and drinking.”

“The people heard it, and approved the doctrine, and immediately practiced the contrary.”

“By the next one [albom],Occupation: Foole, I was right back into the trip again. I'm more frantic, more breathless. You can hear how sick I am. If you want to see a cokehead, just look at the pictures on the Occupation: Foole album.”

“Sickness is poor-spirited, and cannot serve anyone; it must husband its resources to live. But health or fullness answers its own ends, and has to spare, runs over, and inundates the neighborhoods and creeks of other men's necessities.”

“The first wealth is health.”

“And if you are not a bird, then beware of coming to rest above an abyss.”

“Sometimes friends are dangerous. We must be very careful about the help friends give us.”

“Filling life exceedingly is called ominous.”
