Quotes about thrift
Be studious in your profession, and you will be learned. Be industrious and frugal, and you will be rich. Be sober and temperate, and you will be healthy. Be in general virtuous, and you will be happy. At least, you will, by such conduct, stand the best chance for such consequences.
Benjamin Franklin

He that gets all he can honestly, and saves all he gets (necessary expenses excepted), will certainly become rich.
Benjamin Franklin
