Thanks! They always seem to be somewhere towards the end..
My most favorite from Benjamin Franklin, “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserves neither Liberty nor safety”
Everything I have ever heard about the genius of the geniuses is surely true of this Patriot. Amen
I like that one too but it has been misused to justify stupid decisions that affect our country in this day and age.
Better quote, about being penny wise, and pound foolish.
That quote is certainly true today.
Very nice
“Security without liberty is called prison.”
― Benjamin Franklin
You are a very knowledgeable person, it is clear from your comments.❤❤❤

That one leapt out at me
If only Benjamin Franklin was alive to see the state of his country and its politicians today...
Great Point wonder what he would think
@@musiccityimportsinc3868he'd be royally annoyed about the lack of progress on equality for all in over 200 years
He anticipated problems. Follow his advice to get over them. Wisest of men.
I doubt he'd be terribly shocked. As he warned the woman outside the constitutional convention "we have given you a Republic if you can keep it"
I'm happy for him that he isn't.
I can't believe they missed my favourite Franklin quote:
"To be humble to one's superiors is duty, to ones equals is civility, and to one's inferiors, nobility."
Thank you for sharing 👍
The actual quote:
“To be humble to superiors is a duty, to equals courtesy, to inferiors nobleness.”
― Benjamin Franklin
Fantastic
Damn good quote bro
“When tyranny becomes law, resistance becomes duty.” - Thomas Jefferson
You are a very knowledgeable person, it is clear from your comments.❤❤❤
Tell Donald Trump that.
@@2020Bookworm Blow it out your rear. I don't like Trump, but he is NOT the face of tyranny. If anything, the current Admin, the CDC, FBI, DOJ, IRS, etc. are the face of tyranny. I'm FED UP with the psychopathic/deranged attacks on the Trumps. We have FAR BIGGER problems in this country when it comes to oppression and loss of freedom than the Trumps. Get with the program.
Wise words are no longer wise when spoken by fools.

“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”

5:42 very well said. Etched on me.
The greatest quote from Franklin's pantheon of knowledge:
"The more the cushion, the easier the pushin' "
Timeless wisdom...
Cheeri-o, good sir.
"We do not stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing." is what i live by.
I'm 73 and still play video games and D&D. I may have the usual aches & pains of my age but I feel great and having a blast. I've seen many in their 50's and 60's who act and look like they're in their 90's.
Yep! 67 here, gamer and VR nerd...
My grandad, all games machines,teaches via all experiences on Tik Tok, collects devices, plays keyboards..oro musician and writer, does not drink or smoke, trains Rottweilers..into models...exercises weights, bike, 10vflights of stairs a day...is 86...flies to Spain regularly....lol.
i love the attitude but i don't think that's what the quote meant
@@randomgaming667 it exactly means that
@@randomgaming667 It does mean playing. While the definition of that word changes several times over the course of one's life, it still means exactly that. I'm almost 50 and still gaming with my friends of all ages. Some older, some my age, some younger. I find it keeps the brain engaged and I'm happier as a result. Try your brand of fun and never stop.
"THE WOMAN WHO EARNS FOR THE MOST SEX IS THE ONE WHO OFTEN YEARNS FOR INTIMACY, YET MAY STRUGGLE TO FIND IT THROUGH PHYSICAL MEANS ALONE." 9:02

Updated version...
BRIFFAULT’S LAW:
The female, not the male, determines all the conditions of the animal family. Where the female can derive no benefit from association with the male, no such association takes place.
There are a few corollaries I would add:
1. Past benefit provided by the male does not provide for continued or future association.
2. Any agreement where the male provides a current benefit in return for a promise of future association is null and void as soon as the male has provided the benefit (see corollary 1).
3. A promise of future benefit has limited influence on current/future association, with the influence inversely proportionate to the length of time until the benefit will be given and directly proportionate to the degree to which the female trusts the male.
Thank You😹😹😹😹 God Bless You 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
You mean 8:49
I find interesting that "Well done is better than well said" does not only talk about the need to take action but also says a lot about human nature. Talking about doing things or even promising to do them is within everyone's reach. Following through on those words requires effort and (hard) work. At the end of the day talk is cheap. Results speak for themselves.
If the work is done with enthusiasm and passion, then the work doesnt seem hard, because its filled with vibration, energy, love, empathy gratitude, passion….etc etc.
If you feel no change after the work….then its hard feeling.
As a female I like many smart especially the obes about empathy, because we all are capable of empathy love and gratitude.
Pnly problem is the television doesnt promote it, vecause its for free, empathy can not be sold for money or bought in market. It can be only felt.
That IS the definition of religion, according to the Bible that was trying to contrast FAITH from WORKS, making fun of those being confronted by those in need of clothing or food, ACKNOWLEDGING the need, and even saying, GO FORTH WARMED AND FED, but not providing the wherewithal to put those words into action. In other words the socialist/communist/Democrat/RINO cabal have been establishing religion in the form of welfare and entitlements and even public education when you consider Jefferson and the founders understood education was a practice to develop the self government skills to allow governments such as us to function without draconian police or military to control the people. I a Baptist Christian understanding the BIBLE'S definition the founders sought counsel from (the only definition of religion in the entire Bible) believe we nee to divest government from ALL RELIGION, but prayers, confessions professions what we publish and engrave upon wood, stone, or metal or ANYTHING WE SAY about what we believe is NOT RELIGION according to the Bible, but protected speech WE THE PEOPLE are allowed to practice in all venues and government NOT DOING OUR RELIGION which we have to do on our own dime.
Dear Triumph: You've said it.
Faith without works is DEAD! - God
“The government that is big enough to give you everything is also big enough to take everything away” Thomas Jefferson
Big government got big by taking everything away!
You are a very knowledgeable person, it is clear from your comments.❤❤❤
@@jannatart. : To MQ 24: Scarlett Fire's comment on this thread is true: The government is big enough to assist -- yet, large enough to coup insidiously, providing us with Biden, Bragg, Adams, etc., at the helm of America's again "grate-ful" perp mobilizers.
Be civil to all; sociable to many; familiar with few; friend to one; enemy to none. Wow that really blew my mind because that is exactly how I live my life.
He’s one of the brilliant minds that helped found this country. There were many others like him and we’re allowing a bunch of idiots to destroy it.
Many are demanding the idiots destroy it
But, how come nobody ever says who those "idiots" are?

@@JeffWhite-cl2be LOL... the Dems are just their puppets, dig deeper... who made the Dems what they are to this day?
@@malachi- democrat socialist and republican socialists
So many great quotes, and so many we still use today!!
An absolute self taught genius more proof that the money spent on college would better off being saved in most cases . The more you read Franklins quotes the more you realize the value of common sense and to respect time .
You think the quotes are good, you should see about reading some of his longer writings, if you haven't. Madison has some good stuff too.
100% well said
Thats true, the problem is that No matter how useless education might be, high paying jobs require a college degree
@@eugenezoica9476 Yes because that’s the fallacy the public has been pumped with over time . Yes engineers,doctors,lawyers need continuing education but what a colossal waste of money a general business degreee,liberal arts,poly sci, are . A person can do all of this on they’re own with common sense and discretion not an opinion taught by another . The most successful people I know in today’s society are not college grads but free thinking entrepreneurs with the guts to make a life not just a living ….
@@vinny6685 True, but in an ideal society there should be place for observers and regulators with business, liberal arts and sociology degrees whose role is to improve the society we are living in. Not for as many as they are educated but for a great deal of them. Of course the problem lies in the fact that universities are only interested in getting tuition money and produce all too many graduates, there is little competition to get in as long as one can pay for the studies.
I get it now when scriptures say "Wisdom is more precious than Gold" you may have the gold alright but without the wisdom to manage it it will be wasted
See Trump...
The scriptures also say that women should be locked in a room when she's on her period.
@@MrTruthAddictThat’s not in the Bible nice try though.
One of the most famous (and wisest quotes) from Benjamin Franklin: "Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise."
I have heard something else too- Early to bed and early to rise makes you stupid and gives you red eyes😂😂
@@S.A.1 agree with you like no one else. It depends on what kind of work you get.This hundred-dollar bill fat man didn't seem to care much about his work.😂
And another one a penny saved is a penny earned 😂
The funny thing about it is the old Ben himself was a bar hopping night owel, because that was where all the political crowd made connections and discussed politics.
@@polmaclin3019 remember.he was a great achiever.this saying is the root of all time management.❤

“If you have Knowledge, let others light their candle in it.” - Margaret Fuller (P. S. I love your videos )
If you get knowledge and understanding, be sure to also seek and get wisdom (the right use of knowledge).
God gives wisdom liberally to all who ask for it.
The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.

This channel has so much value. Appreciate who ever u r. Thank you so much
Thanks! Super fantastic and hearty to the soul. I sit on my couch, in from the heat here in the south. I am older that most but not sedentary like the rest. I appreciate you-all for this video of “ Franklins thoughtful food to live by” keep it up, send it out, and smile on the way”
Thank you so much for your support! 🙏 ❤️
"Wow, thanks for sharing these profound life lessons from Benjamin Franklin! Each one is like a nugget of wisdom. 'Never ruin an apology with an excuse' and 'Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise' really hit home. So much timeless advice packed in here!"

What timeless wisdom...I heard most of these when I was young and decades later, they still ring so true to me.
Very beautiful and relevant quotes for today's life
They are timeless.
So well spoken ..amen
Wonderful quotes, wonderfully done.
It is not enough if you seek and learn. Practice it. Experience is the only power that can take you to the next level. Success or failure is all life experience for you. You act with courage for everything🙏.
keep rockin' it out, brah
Thank you for all those great quotes ‼️
''An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.'' That's some powerful shit right there. Thanks, Ben.
i always use that one in meetings it gets them everytime
Absolutely love this. Something I’ll have to listen to over and over and contemplate the wisdom.
Excellent work, I know the effort you make to make such a wonderful video, I hope to reach your good level one day 👍

정말 마음에 와닿는 말들입니다. 이렇게 좋은 보이스로 들어보니 더 좋네요 프랭클린의 가르침을 내 삶에 적용하고 살면 내 인생도 긍정적으로 점차 변해갈거라 생각해요

You are a very knowledgeable person, it is clear from your comments.❤❤❤
These are words that really resonate with me. It's even better to hear it with such a good voice, and I think that if I apply Franklin's teachings to my life and live it, my life will gradually change in a positive way.
Also read the Book of Proverbs
I am speechless at the humanity and wisdom of these words.
Where did these old men find all this knowledge? My mind says this knowledge must still exist, but in today's world it feels like a vapor that has been blown away in the wind. Surely there are still people out there that care about this wisdom more than social media.
He was one forward thinking Mofo!
Goodness gracious the things that pertain today are so true.
If it had less words I'd make a t-shirt with the quote; "If all printers were determined not too print anything till they were sure it would offend nobody, there would be very little printed."
Goosebumps. Damn 🙏🖤
Outstanding quotes👌👌🙏🙏👏👏
So many great quotes here. Said the man who had many love children, and finally owned up to only one at the end of his life. He lived a life of duplicity: supporting the rebellion while being loyal to the king. Dying in England.
@@Gracietod Thats my point: while he has all these brilliant bits of advice, he had major character flaws.
Major huh? Show me a man, besides yourself, that doesn't have flaws. At least his wisdom, leadership, courage helped create the nation. Small men find it so easy to critique great men from a distance. Or their mama's basement.
@@michaelharper2780 Ad hominem attacks against me change the truth? Was he really enriching a nation or enriching himself? When he negotiated for the Treaty of Peace in 1783 he did so as a lawyer of england. An agent of the king. Whose side was he on? I know you have been told some fanciful stories about him the endear your heart, BUT thats no what the facts say.
Ben’s wisdom is timeless. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent 🎉❤

"People don't change until the pain becomes greater than the fear of change." Heard on the radio from Pastor Chuck Swindoll... might have been a requote.

Dear Dianna Hall: Too many: Ecclesiastes 12:12 - The New King James Version (NKJV)

Brilliant!
Missed One ! Benjamin Franklin famously said that "Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days."

Classic comment culled and curated.
Calligraphed and cuneiform in clay.
Correctly composed and created.
Congruent with my cogitation.
Certainly, communicable and commended.
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail,is my favorite.🇿🇲
That's a long time to live 84 years especially for 18th century standards
Food was better back then.
@@jonyoung6405 Correctamundo maximus ✔️
Interesting indeed
Quote! 😨
"Many people die at twenty-five and aren't buried until they are Seventy-Five!"
Correct me if I am wrong but means the rate race!
Well I cried on this one!!! facts 😭
Lisa Vergara: Spiritually.
The rat race, sure, not enjoying, experiencing, and appreciating life, not challenging themselves to learn and conquer new things, push themselves out of their comfort zone, etc. That’s what I took it as. Very true. Life can get monotonous, make sure you are living and enjoying it.
That's an interesting interpretation! I took it as: someone at 25 thinking they know it all so therefore discontinuing to "live" until they die. The moral of the quote being to stay humble and always leave room for growth
Great quotes...👍

Tomorrow is the best labour saving device of today isn’t it?
All this from a guy that used to go into a bar to get drunk, start a fight, kick the guys ass, and then take a women home. My favorite founding father.
Timeless quotes. Maybe even more appropriate for today!
Incredible wisdom.
Amazing
Most of these are wise and witty. Beyond this in their collective entirety but a few are just like the stuff I blathered on about when I was a drunkard. A ponderous drunkard, but deluded none the less. I wish I'd written it down, but I would have thrown it away since so now, I can pick and choose who shall be doing the blathering for me. Ben Franklin is probably the most worthy of candidates. Thank you.
The narrator of this video smokes so many cigarettes that, last year, on his 16th birthday, he was given a new ashtray.

"By failing to prepare you are preparing to fail"
Wise words indeed .
Great stuff!
Trivial edits...
At 0:20, the pause between "ere" and "long" is inappropriate. The phrase is "ere long", no pause.
At 4:46, the word on the screen is passion, but the word spoken is possession.
I heard the passion/possession one, too, and wanted to comment, so thanks! However, it is more accurately located at 4:52.
Quite a guy, was our old Ben: he was able to channel Mark Twain and Oscar Wilde, predicted twenty-first century colloquialisms, and even used catch phrases familiar to us such as “question authority.” And while people most assuredly did “have sex” in the eighteenth century, that was not the set of words they used to describe the experience!
It’s a amazing ❤
Good
"Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow. "
(BF was a wise old man indeed)
If you are tempted to procrastinate, put off acting on it until later.
Wise men seek wise counsel. ... Me. It is the reason I am a life long fan of Benjamin Franklin.
Benjamin Franklin was sigma male confirmed. These were all Gold
A sigma male prefers to avoid social hierarchy and the need for validation and attention, instead focusing on internal strength.
Great Quotes 👍
I get up at 6 a.m. and I am done around 10 p.m. ....almost the same schedule as Ben...at 72, I feel if I am not accomplishing work in reno projects, gardening, wood working, writing journals or playing sports... I have wasted a day. Fill your wide awake hours and one will never have a problem sleeping at the end of the day...you had a fullfilling day and that is what your goal is and you have accomplished so much...it is now 10 p.m.......good night and you will sleep tight...😴
