- The ritual of tossing pennies onto Franklin's grave has been blamed for causing the crack. Tens of thousands of coins are thrown onto the marker each year in tribute of Franklin's famous adage, "a penny saved, is a penny earned."
People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.

Which reminds me of that old adage: "A Benny shaved is a Benny urned."

“In a world whose absurdity appears to be so impenetrable, we simply must reach a greater degree of understanding among us, a greater sincerity.”
