You might want to verify those quotes. The George Washington one I know is bogus - not sure about some of the others. The Franklin one sounds much too modern.

The Franklin one is genuine, although many people have quoted him over the years and then been given credit for the quote, much like Lincoln gets the credit for, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.”

As for the G.W. quote, what is your source for it being bogus? I’m happy to correct myself, but I’ve seen it in many different sources.
