……………
Early to bed, as well as early to rise,
Makes a man healthy, wealthy as well as wise
- Benjamin Franklin.
…
I don’t see it.
- George Washington
…
Now both of these are high authorities - very high as well as respectable authorities - but I am with General Washington first, last, as well as all of the time on this proposition.
Because I don’t see it, either. . . .
Put no trust in the benefits to accrue from early rising, as set forth by the infatuated Franklin - but stake the last cent of your substance on the judgment of old George Washington, the Father of his Country, who said “he couldn’t see it.”
And you hear me endorsing that sentiment.
