"I conceive that the great part of the miseries of mankind are brought upon them by false estimates they have made of the value of things."

-- Benjamin Franklin

Franklin is certainly a complex and interesting man. He had a fascination with life, a belief in community service and a distaste for religion. He espoused frugality and industry, finding these to be desirable in others. Franklin was very human and had difficulties incorporating these and other traits into is character. Something that most of of struggle with. It's hard not to like Franklin.........
