Benjamin Franklin is credited with remarking,
“I’d rather have an idiom for my Words of the Week
than an idiot for our President of the United States.”
I present here a few other
Franklinistic obiter dicta:
Don’t put all your deplorables into one basket.
A kitty in the hand is worth two with Billy Bush.
Good fences may disappoint good neighbors.
Beauty pageants are in the hands of the beholder.
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s plague?
Nothing can be said to be certain except
death and tax avoidance.
Don’t count your votes before they are snatched.
