[Selected wit and wisdom of a Founding Father]
Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days.
Certainty? In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes.
God heals and the doctor takes the fee.
He that falls in love with himself will have no rivals.
If you would know the value of money try to borrow some.
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage and half-shut afterwards.
Life’s tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
Never confuse motion with action.
When you’re finished changing, you’re finished.
Wise men don’t need advice. Fools won’t take it.

The kindergarten teacher was showing her class an encyclopedia page
picturing several nations’ flags. She pointed to the American flag with
thirteen stars and thirteen stripes and asked, “What flag is this?”
A little girl called out, “That’s the flag of our country!”
“Very good!” the teacher said. “And what is the name of our country?”
“Tis of thee,” the girl said confidently.
