Keep in mind that you won't find anything contemporary here, just things prior to 1901. You can search for specific words or for entries from various authors. Want to know some famous Ben Franklin sayings? Just click on his name. Hmmm--"Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." And you thought your dad made that up! According to the notes, Franklin didn't make it up, either, but he helped popularize it.
