I could neither find a source for kandrathe's Franklin quote nor a refutation that it was one. Do you have support that it is spurious?

I have no definitive support that it is spurious, but after quite a while of searching google and the usual suspects (wikiquote, etc), I have not found any source, and more than a couple accusations that it is sourceless. At least one blog claims, without any citation, that it is not found in any of his archives or writings, but cites if favourably anyway.

I'd put good money on this being invented. Regardless, as with all such quote claims, the burden is to demonstrate its source, not to definitively prove that there isn't one, which is a nearly impossible task.
