I am the laziest man in the world. I invented all those things to save myself from toil.
Benjamin FranklinAs we must account for every idle word, so must we account for every idle silence.
Benjamin FranklinYou must not, when you have gained a victory, use any triumphing or insulting expressions, nor show too much of the pleasure you feel; but endeavour to console your adversary, and make him less dissatisfied with himself by every kind and civil expression that may be used with truth; such as, you understand the game better than I, but you are a little inattentive, or, you play too fast; or, you had the best of the game, but something happened to divert your thoughts, and that turned it in my favour.
Benjamin Franklin
