他靠的是求知与修为。即通过自学和读书会来学习，通过自律来培养自己的美德和行为。 他说：“诚实和勤勉，应该成为你永久的伴侣。我未见过一个早起、勤奋、谨慎、诚实的人抱怨命运不好。”直行道富兰克林读书会成员，来到富兰克林纪念馆
富兰克林读书会传统
在富兰克林年轻时，和伙伴们创办了读书会，采取好友聚会、共读经典、分享心得的方式来使得自己不断成长。
事实证明读书会有助于形成认真阅读、耐心倾听、独立思考和平等讨论的终身习惯，对于汲取人类知识精华、完善人文素养、丰富审美情趣、培养人际交往能力、提升写作和演说能力，都是极其高效的方法和门径。
之后在读书会精神的指引下，富兰克林和他的朋友们创办了宾夕法尼亚慈善学校，即今天美国常青藤名校——宾夕法尼亚大学。让求知和修为的传统精神世代相传。

1.富兰克林简介
本杰明·富兰克林（Benjamin Franklin）(1706-1790)——资本主义精神最完美的代表，十八世纪美国最伟大的科学家和发明家，著名的政治家、外交家、哲学家、文学家和航海家以及美国独立战争的伟大领袖。他一生最真实的写照是他自己所说过的一句话“诚实和勤勉，应该成为你永久的伴侣。”
正当他在科学研究上不断取得新成果的时候，由于英国殖民者的残暴统治，北美殖民地的民族解放运动日益高涨。为了民族的独立和解放，他毅然放下了实验仪器，积极地站在了斗争的最前列。从1757到1775年他几次作为北美殖民地代表到英国谈判。独立战争爆发后，他参加了第二届大陆会议和《独立宣言》的起草工作。1776年，已经七十高龄的富兰克林又远涉重洋出使法国，赢得了法国和欧洲人民对北美独立战争的支援。1787年，他积极参加了制定美国宪法的工作，并组织了反对奴役黑人的运动。
2.富兰克林生平事迹
他出身寒微，10岁便辍学回家做工，12岁起在印刷所当学徒、帮工．但他刻苦好学，在掌握印刷技术
之余，还广泛阅读文学、历史、哲学方面的著作，自学数学和4门外语，潜心练习写作.他常常在做完了一天的工作后,到印刷厂的图书室阅读各种各样的书籍.有时看得入迷,直到夜幕降临,焦急的母亲来工厂找他,他才回家.所有这一切为他在一生中取得多方面的成就打下了坚实的基础． 为了自立于当时的社会，他几经周折，创办了自己的企业——印刷所．由于吃苦耐劳，讲求信誉，注意经营管理，他不仅在印刷界激烈的竞争中站住了脚，并且把业务扩大到邻近几个州以及西印度群岛，成为北美洲印刷出版行业中的佼佼者． 他注意观察自然现象，研究科学问题．他从实践出发，从事科学实验和观察，在电学上解答了“电为何物”的问题，将不同状态下的电称为“正电”和“负电”，提出了电学中的“一流论”，在大气电学方面揭示了雷电现象的本质，被誉为“第二个普罗米修斯”．这些电学上划时代的研究成果使他成为蜚声世界的第一流的科学家．他在光学、热学、声学、数学、海洋学、植物学等方面也有研究，并有新式火炉、避雷针、电轮、三轮钟、双焦距眼镜、自动烤肉机、玻璃乐器、高架取书器、新式路灯等一系列发明创造．因而，他以仅读过两年小学的学历，被美国的哈佛大学、耶鲁大学，英国的牛津大学、爱丁堡大学、圣安德鲁大学等六七所大学授予硕士学位或博士学位． 富兰克林成名以后在北美殖民地的文化传播和社会福利方面做了大量的工作．他先后组织建立了“共读社”、“美洲哲学学会”、“北美科学促进会”、报社、图书馆、书店、医院、大学、消防队、地方民兵组织等学术、文化、医疗卫生、消防、治安组织和机构；他还改革了北美殖民地的邮政制度，建立起北美殖民地统一的邮政系统．他是杰出的社会活动家，成为北美殖民地有影响的人物． 他不仅善于解决自然科学里的专门问题和社会政治活动中的实际问题，还常常探索许多哲学问题和社会问题．他是自然神论者，认为精神依附于物质；他认为社会贫困的原因是劳动者必须养活寄生者；他酷爱自由和平，反对战争，痛恨种族歧视和奴隶制度，主张维护黑人和印第安人的利益．他是当时最渊博的资产阶级自思想家之一． 富兰克林生活的时代正值美国从殖民地向独立的资产阶级国家迈进的重大转折时期，他积极投身革命运动，对独立战争的胜利和美国国家制度的初期建设作出了重大的贡献． 在1754年北美各殖民地领导人物出席的奥尔巴尼议上，他提出著名的“奥尔巴尼联盟”的计划，被会议通过，成为最早将美利坚合众国的大联合这种思想灌输到殖民地人民头脑中去的人． 在宾夕法尼亚，他始终同殖民地人民一道同业主集团的横行不法作斗争．1757年，他代表州议会赴伦敦向英王请愿，要求业主交纳税款，取得成功；1764年，他第二次赴伦敦，要求英王保护殖民地利益，没有结果．其后，英国政府加强对北美殖民地的镇压，激发了殖民地人民更强烈的反抗斗争．富兰克林的立场彻底转到革命方面． 宾夕法尼亚原为业主殖民地，是1681年英王查理二世赐予威廉·宾的土地．后来，威廉·宾的两个儿子继承产业．业主在其领有的殖民地享有委派包括州长在内的官吏、否决议会议案、免交捐税等特权． 1775年5月，他回到美洲，立即投入到革命斗争中去．他担任宾州治安委员会主席，主持地方军委，并和潘恩共同起草了州宪法；他作为宾州代表出席第二议，成为美国独立言的起草人之一；他担任美国邮政部长，组织战争期间的邮政，成绩显著；在美军作战屡次受挫的情况下，他作为三人委员会成员顿会商，决定实行北美13州的总动员，使得独立战争得以坚持6年之久． 在英强美弱的局势下，殖民地人民必须争取外援．富兰克林奉大陆会议之命出使法国，争取美法结盟，共同对英作战．在当时复杂而不利于美国的外交环境中，他以美国必胜的信念、坚韧不拔的耐心，巧妙灵活的外交手腕，利用欧洲国家之间的矛盾，抓住有利时机，缔结了美法同盟盟约，争取了人力、物力、财力上的大量外援，确保了独立
战争的胜利．在战争后期，他参加并一度主持美英议和谈判，签订了有利于美国的英美和平条约，胜利地完成了艰巨的战时外交使命．战后，他成为新生的美国第一任驻法特命全权大使留法工作，直到1785年归国． 回国以后，他连续4年当选宾夕法尼亚州长．在美国宪法会议上，他是宪法起草委员会委员，他为了调解会议代表的意见分歧而提出的议会的两院制，成为美国的基本国家制度之一． 1788年后，他不再担任公职，但仍发表政论文章，以供政府采择，并致力于促进废除奴隶制的活动． 1790年4月17日，富兰克林与世长辞．在他出殡的那一天，为他送葬的人数多达两万，充分表达了美国人民对他的痛悼之情．同时，不仅美国国会决定为他服丧一个月，法国国民议会也决议为他哀悼，表明了他不仅属于美国，也属于全世界！
3.富兰克林的故事
富兰克林年轻的时候，曾在一家小印刷厂里工作，他把所有的积蓄都投在了那里，因为他特别想得到为议会印文件的工作，但他却受到了另一个议员的干涉。那个议员既有钱又能干，是印刷厂里的重要人物，他非常讨厌富兰克林。
面对这样的情况，富兰克林并么有灰心他下决心要让对方喜欢自己。
富兰克林听说那个人的图书室里藏有一本很奇特的书，于是他便给那个人写了一个便笺，假装很诚意的想看那本书，并希望他能把书借给自己几天，以便自己能细细的品味一下这本书的奇特之处。果真不出富兰克林所料，那人看过便笺之后，立刻派人把那本书送了过来。一个星期之后，富兰克林把那本书还了回去，并特意附带一封信，强烈的表示了对那个人的谢意
事情过后不久，他们二人在会议室里相见了，以往那个人对富兰克林是爱理不理的，可这次却与以往不同，他不但主动跟富兰克林打招呼，而且还很有礼貌。从此以后，对于富兰克林的每一件事，他都乐意帮忙，久而久之，两人成了很好的朋友，这种友谊一直持续到那个人去
富兰克林之所以成功，是因为他在请别人帮忙满足他人的虚荣心的同时，也使他人感受到自己
成长启迪：有了朋友，人生才不会孤单，有了朋友，我们才可以在痛苦和危险之中获得一丝心灵的安慰。所以在任何时候，都不可以轻易与人反目成仇，而应该像富兰克林一样，尽量化敌为友。只有这样，我们的人生道路才会平坦，才不会崎岖不平。
受到了尊重，这样就把敌人化成了朋友。 世。 。
篇三：富兰克林的中英文简介及其名言
简介
Benjamin Franklinwas born in Milk Street, Boston, on January 6, 1706. His father, Josiah Franklin, was a tallow chandler who married twice, and of his seventeen children Benjamin was the youngest son. His schooling ended at ten, and at twelve he was bound apprentice学徒 to his brother James, a printer, who published the "New England Courant."
To this journal he became a contributor, and later was for a time its nominal editor. But the brothers quarreled, and Benjamin ran away, going first to New York, and thence to Philadelphia, where he arrived in October, 1723. He soon obtained work as a printer, but after a few months he was induced by Governor Keith to go to London, where, finding Keith's promises empty, he
worked as a compositor again till he was broughtbackto Philadelphia by a merchant named Denman, who gave him a position in
his business. On Denman's death he returned to his former trade, and shortly set up a printing house of his own from which he published "The Pennsylvania Gazette," to which he contributed many essays, and which he made a medium for agitating a variety of local reforms.
In 1732 hebegan to issue his famous "Poor Richard's Almanac"《穷理查德年鉴》，for the eichment浓缩 of which he borrowed or composed整理 those pithy精辟的utterances言论 of worldly wisdom which are the basis of a large part of his popularreputation. In 1758, the year in which he ceases停止 writing for the Almanac, he printed in it "Father Abraham's Sermon," now regarded as the most famous piece文章 of literature produced in Colonial America. Meantime Franklin was concerning himself more and more with public affairs. He set forth a scheme for an Academy, which was taken up later and finally developed into theUniversity of Pennsylvania; and he founded an "American Philosophical Society" for the purpose of enabling scientific men to communicate their discoveries to one another. He himself had already begun his electrical researches, which, with other scientific inquiries, he called on in the intervals of money-making and politics to the end of his life. In 1748 he sold his business in order to get leisure for study, having now acquired comparative wealth; and in a few years he had made discoveries that gave him a reputation with the learned throughout Europe.
Benjamin Franklin (January 17, 1706–April 17, 1790) was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. A noted polymath, Franklin was a leading author and printer, political theorist, politician, postmaster,
scientist, inventor, satirist, civic activist, statesman, and diplomat. As a scientist, he was a major figure in the American Enlightenment and the history of physics for his discoveries and theories regarding
electricity. He invented the lightning rod, bifocals, the Franklin stove, a carriage odometer, and the glass 'armonica'. He formed both the first public lending library in America and the first fire department in Pennsylvania.
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.[2] Franklin was foundational in defining the American ethos as a marriage of the practical and democratic values of thrift, hard work, education, community spirit, self-governing institutions, and opposition to authoritarianism both political and religious, with the scientific and tolerant values of the Enlightenment. In the words of historian Hey Steele Commager, "In a Franklin could be merged the virtues of Puritanism without its defects, the illumination of the Enlightenment without its heat."[3] To Walter Isaacson, this makes Franklin "the most accomplished American of his age and the most influential in inventing the type of society America would become."[4]
Franklin, always proud of his working class roots, became a successful newspaper editor and printer in Philadelphia, the leading city in the colonies. He was also partners with William Goddard and Joseph Galloway the three of whom published the Pennsylvania Chronicle, a newspaper that was known for its revolutionary sentiments and criticisms of the British monarchy in the American colonies.[5] He became wealthy publishing Poor Richard's Almanack and The Pennsylvania Gazette. Franklin gained international renown as a scientist for his famous experiments in
electricity and for his many inventions, especially the lightning rod. He played a major role in establishing the University of Pennsylvania and was elected the first president of the American Philosophical Society. Franklin became a national hero in America when he spearheaded the effort to have Parliament repeal the unpopular Stamp Act. An accomplished diplomat, he was widely admired among the French as American minister to Paris and was a major figure in the development of positive
Franco-American relations. For many years he was the British postmaster for the colonies, which enabled him to set up the first national
communications network. He was active in community affairs, colonial and state politics, as well as national and international affairs. From 1785 to 1788, he served as governor of Pennsylvania. Toward the end of his life, he freed his slaves and became one of the most prominent abolitionists.
His colorful life and legacy of scientific and political achievement, and status as one of America's most influential Founding Fathers, have seen Franklin honored on coinage and money; warships; the names of many towns, counties, educational institutions, namesakes, and companies; and more than two centuries after his death, countless cultural references.
