«Wit and Wisdom from Poor Richard's Almanack» by Benjamin Franklin

Hundreds of delightful aphorisms, carefully selected from many issues of Franklin's popular 18th-century publication: «Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise»; «Love your Neighbor; yet don't pull down your Hedge»; «He that lies down with Dogs, shall rise up with fleas» and many more.
