A writer as well as a statesman and scientist, Franklin was one of the most prominent figures in the Enlightenment movement. While borrowing from Puritan teachings his famous Thirteen Virtues(十三条人生准则), he actually deviated from Puritanism by advocating(提倡) both personal happiness and social well-being. His ideal of a material success resulting from honesty and hard work was virtually the American Dream in embryo ( 胚胎).
Franklin earned the title of “The First American” for his early and indefatigable campaigning for colonial unity; as an author and spokesman in London for several colonies, then as the first United States Ambassador to France, he exemplified the emerging American nation. Franklin was foundational in defining the American ethos (民族精神) as a marriage of the practical values of thrift, hard work, education, community spirit (团体精神), self-governing institutions, and opposition to authoritarianism both political and religious, with the scientific and tolerant values of the Enlightenment.

Part One: letters to his son
• The Autobiography opens with a salutation(问候、致意) to Ben Franklin’s son, Franklin says that because his son may wish to know about his life which he enjoyed and would like to repeat . He thanks God for allowing him to live a good life.
• That good fortune when I reflected on it which is frequently the case has induced me sometimes to say that were it left to my choice ,I should have no objection to go over the same life from its beginning to the end, only asking the advantage authors have of correcting in a second edition some faults of the first. So would I also wish to change some incidents of it for others more favourable. Notwithstanding, if this condition were denied, I should still accept the offer.

20120312,From The Autobiography富兰克林自传部分

From The AutobiographyIt was about this time I conceived the bold and arduous project of arriving at moral perfection. I wished to live without committing any fault at any time, and to conquer all that either natural inclination, custom, or company might lead me into. As I knew, or thought I knew, what was right and wrong, I did not see why I might not always do the one and avoid the other. But I soon found I had under taken a task of more difficulty than I had imagined.约在此时我想起道德圆满的勇敢和坚毅的计划。
无论何时我愿意过着没有荒谬行为的生活;我必须克服一切的自然倾向、习惯、或伴侣的诱惑。
具我所知,或自以为是,什么是对的或是错的,我不明白为什么我不能常去做这一件事和避免那另一件事。
但是我立即觉得我已担负了一个任务,其困难度超出我意料之外。
While my attention was taken up, and employed in guarding against one fault, I was often surprised by another; habit took the advantage of inattention; inclination was some times too strong for reason. I concluded, at length, that the mere speculative conviction that it was our interest to be completely virtuous, was not sufficient to prevent our slipping; and that the contrary habits must be broken, and good ones acquired and established, before we can have any dependence on a steady, uniform rectitude of conduct. For this purpose I therefore tried the following method.当我的注意力是用来监视某一种过失时,常常又被其它的过失吓到了;习惯有轻忽之利。
富兰克林自传——TheAutobiographyofBenjaminFranklin

富兰克林自传——TheAutobiographyofBenjaminFranklin富兰克林自传——The Autobiography of Benjamin FranklinAbout this time I met with an odd volume of the Spectator.I had never before seen any of them.I bought it,read it over and over,and was much delighted with it. I thought the writing excellent,and wished ,if possible,to imitate it. With that view I took some of the papers,and,making shout hints of the sentiments in each sentence,laid them by a few days,and then,without looking at he hook,tried to complete the papers again,by expressing each hinted sentiment at length,and as fully as it had been expressed before,in any suitable words that should occur to me.Then I compared them.But I found I wanted a stock of words,or a readiness in recollecting and using them,which I thought I should have acquired before that time if I had gone on making verse;since the continual search for words of the same import,but dof different length,to suit the measure,or of different sound for the rhythm,would have laid me under a constant necessity of searching for variety,and also have tended to fix that variety in my mind,and make me master of it.Therefore I took some of the tales in the Spectator,and turned them into verse;and,after a time,when I had pretty wll forgotten the prose,turned them back again.I also sometimes jumbled my collection of hints into confusion,and after some weeks endeavored to reduce them into the best order,before I began to form the full sentences and complete the subject.This was to teach me method in the arragement of the thoughts.By comparing my work with the orginal,I discovered many faults and corrected them;but I sometimes had the pleasure to fancy that, in particulars of small consequence,I had been fortunate enoughto improve the method or the language,and this encouraged me to think that I might in time comt to be tolerate English writer,of which I was extremely ambitious.差不多这一时期我得到一本叫《旁观者》的奇怪册子。

感触五
除了具体的建议和忠告,富兰克林还提出了一个打 造完美品德的计划。在他22岁的时候,他想克服自己身 上所有缺点。起初他认为,只要知道什么是善,什么是恶, 就会只做好事不做坏事。但他逐渐发现,“习惯会利用一 时的疏忽,理智有时又不是癖好的对手”。因此必须戒除 坏习惯,培养好习惯。他编制了一个美德培养表,将自己 希望获得的美德都列在上面,每天对照表单检查自己的过 失。他认为坏习惯就像花园里的野草,不能指望一下子都 把它们拔光;因此在一个时期内应该着重培养某一项美德, 当自己认为这项美德已经达到了,再去培养下一项。当所 有的美德都已经训练过一次后,又从头开始,直到形成习 惯为止。正如临摹字帖的人,或许他们永远不能达到像帖 本一样卓越的书法水平,但在临摹的过程中他们的书法必 然有很大提高。

在人生发展的道路上,没有什么是 不可能的;使其成为可能的,是决心和 行动。
《富兰克林自传》向我们表明,出身寒微、 受教育程度低并不能成为一个人平庸不前的理 由。只要有决心并坚持不懈,每个人最终都能 改变自己的命运。所以我套用哈耶克在《通往 奴役之路》里的这句话做他的墓志铭。
