Plan For Attaining Moral Perfection Pt.1

“It was about this time I conceived the bold and arduous project of arriving at moral perfection. I wish’d to live without committing any fault at any time; I would 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 undertaken a task of more difficutly than I had imagined.” (Excerpt from The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin).
