Can I leave out "that"?
Father said that time is money and that one must be punctual.
According to an English grammar book published in Japan, "that" after "said" can be left out, but "that" after "and" cannot in the above case.
The grammar book was not written by a native speaker of English.
Therefore, I would like to confirm with native speakers if the above is true.
