His thirteen virtues included temperance, silence, order, resolution, furgality, industry, sincerity, justice, moderation, cleanliness, tranqulity, chasity, and humility. These thirteen virtues ar very powerful, and if completed correctly, a true man is formed. Benjamin talks about his plan on how to achieve these goals. He will progress himself week by week. This is a very logical and reasonable progression. I thin Franklins autobiography is very respected, because it is just an unbelieavable story as well as philosphy that barely anybody could every achieve and write. After reading his virtues, i thought to myself about how much i have to change in my life and achieve to be a great man like Benjamin Franklin.
