"Great beauty. great strength, and great riches are really
and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all."
-Benjamin Franklin
The excerpt above converys the message that a good heart (a person who is all but bad) overpowers the common traits everyone seeks; beauty, wealthy, and strength. The factors mentioned above are all meaningless and really have no value. Compared to a right heart, a being that strives to be their best with positive intentions, it tops all of those. Benjamin wants the person reading this to understand that nothing can bypass a good heart.
