Let no pleasure tempt thee, no profit allure three, no ambition corrupt thee, to do anything which thou knowest to be evil; so shalt thou always live jollily; for a good conscience is a continual Christmas.
-- Benjamin Franklin
Who doesn't have a soft spot for Benjamin Franklin? Involved in the founding of our nation, author of Poor Richard's Almanack, a great inventor, and so much else. I've recently gained a new appreciation for his accomplishments as my son has been learning about him in school. To learn more about his life and work, click here and explore a great compilation of background and facts put together by PBS. Also, try this site for some of his best aphorisms!
