A little neglect may breed great mischief; for want of a nail the shoe was lost; for want of a shoe the horse was lost; and for want of a horse the rider was lost, being overtaken and slain by the enemy; all for the want of care about a horse-nail.Autobiography and Other Writings by Benjamin Franklin, edited by Russel B. Nye. 1949. p.171
