Fuller, R.B.: A Propos Ben Franklin:
"If Franklin had been a large landowner, I’m sure he would never have had the creativity. I’m sure he counseled himself to be as simple as possible and to concern himself with just the truth.
“It’s like what Jasper Moore once said to me about why I would never be a success. He said you are always trying to make things simple, when the first rule of success is to try to make things complicated.”
