The most trifling actions that affect a man's credit are to be regarded.
The sound of your hammer at five in the morning, or at nine at night,
heard by a creditor, makes him easy six months longer; but if he
sees you at a Billiard table, or hears your voice at a Tavern, when
you should be at work, he sends for his money the next day.
-- Benjamin Franklin
