I've tried to find an actual source for B. Franklin making that statement. Several attribute it to him, but no one ever cites an actual reference.
It's still a great saying, though, and somebody certainly said it. If I were to use it I would be tempted to subtitle it "Commonly attributed to Benjamin Franklin".
