Thoughts by Benjamin Franklin from Poor Richard's Almanac, or from his letters, on life and prosperity.


“We must not be proud of our bodies, because the matter is from the earth, yet not dishonour our bodies, because the mould and shape are from the divine wisdom.”
–Matthew Henry, Commentary, Job 10
