Ben Franklin is one of my role models. I read his autobiography in my 20's and tried to conduct myself according to his principles. I'm in my 60's now and remain a trusted and respected member of my community! Thankin' Franklin!

Today's time, we see writers, tradesmen, intellectuals, theologians, politicians, scientists, and engineers as separate things, but all of the great men of our history were all of the above.

He was a credit to Family, His Nation, and to Humanity. Hall of Champions. Benjamin Freakin' Franklin....I Salute you!

I work for a woman that is from his heritage. She is in her 90's. They are the sweetest, nice, educated, down to earth family ever. ❤

Benjamin’s quote “Those who would give up essential liberty only to purchase temporary safety do not deserve liberty or safety” really needs to be remembered nowadays.
-
As I have just finished reading an abridged version of Franklin's autobiography, this documentary reinforces what I learned from that literary work. To wit: Ben personified the universal man, American style. That Dr. Franklin did not seek patents for his inventions tells you everything to know about him. Unselfish, yet self-assured.

Not everyone else grows older grows wiser . Ben Franklin certainly did. He became more compassionaye with age as well.
-
Much admiration for his desire to help others all his life! Defiantly a man needed in that time.
-
Whenever somebody asks that "if you could have dinner with anyone, living or dead" party question, my first answer is always Ben Franklin. Such a fascinating man!
-
Never knew Franklin was involved in the anti-slavery movement, let alone was head of a anti-slavery institution. He really was a pioneer for liberty and democracy. Hats off to him! 🇺🇲
-
What an amazing person. We Americans today could surely benefit from having Franklin's ideas, level head, and diplomatic skills helping to guide our current nation.
-
If I could go back in time I would want to talk to this man. Definitely one of, if not my favorite Founding Father.
-
People like this are needed now. Enlightened thinkers.....
-
Benjamin Franklin obtained immortality through his works and intrigue. May he continue to be remembered as an exemplary statesman, scientist, and citizen.

He was a humanist, a scientist and a renaissance man
