In addition, he wrote down a few words about each of the virtues in order to clarify the meaning he gave to each one. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Here's a list of the 13 virtues which Franklin committed himself to: \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 1. \"TEMPERANCE. Eat not to dullness; drink not to elevation.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The first virtue selected by Franklin was not to overindulge in food or drink. Franklin writes that he selected temperance first because \"it tends to procure that coolness and clearness of head which is so necessary where constant vigilance was to be kept up\". \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 2. \"SILENCE. Speak not but what may benefit others or yourself; avoid trifling conversation.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e By adopting this virtue Franklin wished, first, to gain knowledge, which he noted one acquires by using the ears instead of the tongue. Second, he wanted to \"break a habit I was getting into (of) prattling, punning, and joking, which only made me acceptable to trifling company\". \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 3. \"ORDER. Let all your things have their places; let each part of your business have its time.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e By achieving order Franklin expected to be able to have more time for the pursuit of his studies and other projects. In addition, Franklin explains that the \"precept of Order requires that every part of my business should have its allotted time\". \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 4. \"RESOLUTION. Resolve to perform what you ought; perform without fail what you resolve.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Here's what Franklin has to say about the virtue of resolution: \"Resolution, once habitual, would keep me firm in my endeavors to obtain all the subsequent virtues\". The virtue of resolution can be summed up as follows: if you say you're going to do something, do it. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 5. \"FRUGALITY. Make no expense but to do good to others or yourself; i.e., waste nothing.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 6. \"INDUSTRY. Lose no time; be always employ'd in something useful; cut off all unnecessary actions.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Franklin explains his inclusion of frugality and industry in his list of virtues as follows: \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \"Frugality and Industry, freeing me from my remaining debt, and producing affluence and independence, would make more easy the practice of Sincerity and Justice, etc.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In his autobiography Franklin explains that he owes the acquisition of his fortune to frugality and industry. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 7. \"SINCERITY. Use no hurtful deceit; think innocently and justly, and, if you speak, speak accordingly.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 8. \"JUSTICE. Wrong none by doing injuries, or omitting the benefits that are your duty.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 9. \"MODERATION. Avoid extremes; forbear resenting injuries so much as you think they deserve.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 10. \"CLEANLINESS. Tolerate no uncleanliness in body, cloaths, or habitation.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 11. \"TRANQUILLITY. Be not disturbed at trifles, or at accidents common or unavoidable.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 12. \"CHASTITY. Rarely use venery but for health or offspring, never to dullness, weakness, or the injury of your own or another's peace or reputation.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 13. \"HUMILITY. Imitate Jesus and Socrates.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Of the virtue of humility, Franklin writes the following: \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \"My list of virtues contained at first but twelve; but a Quaker friend having kindly informed me that I was generally thought proud, that my pride showed itself frequently in conversation, that I was not content with being in the right when discussing any point, but was overbearing and rather insolent, of which he convinced me by mentioning several instances, I determined endeavoring to cure myself, if I could, of this vice or folly among the rest, and I added Humility to my list, giving an extensive meaning to the word.\"","published_at":"2025-02-12T21:53:28+01:00","created_at":"2025-02-10T10:14:15+01:00","vendor":"FOSHE ART ","type":"Digital Prints","tags":["13 virtues","ageless philosophy","Benjamin Franklin","Inspirational poster","wisdom"],"price":35000,"price_min":35000,"price_max":50000,"available":true,"price_varies":true,"compare_at_price":0,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44831372607653,"title":"30x45 cm \/ 12x18″","option1":"30x45 cm \/ 12x18″","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"219cbaec_0","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":39642892140709,"product_id":8956787359909,"position":1,"created_at":"2025-02-10T10:14:19+01:00","updated_at":"2025-02-10T10:14:21+01:00","alt":null,"width":1000,"height":1000,"src":"\/\/www.foshe.art\/cdn\/shop\/files\/il_fullxfull.3890972466_kgzv.jpg?v=1739178861","variant_ids":[44831372476581,44831372607653]},"available":true,"name":"Inspirational quotes -
