Famous quotes containing the words franklin and/or street:

    “Most people dislike vanity in others, whatever share they have of it themselves; but I give it fair quarter, wherever I meet with it, being persuaded that it is often productive of good to the possessor, and to others who are within his sphere of action: and therefore, in many cases, it would not be altogether absurd if a man were to thank God for his vanity among the other comforts of life.”
    —Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)

    “At any street corner the feeling of absurdity can strike any man in the face.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)
