Poor Richard's Almanack by Benjamin Franklin popularized many of the aphorisms we still use today. The link provided will take you to a list of aphorisms taken from Poor Richard's Almanack. Using the Google Doc below, choose 2 aphorisms to analyze. Out of these 2 aphorisms, you are to choose one to share with the class, in addition to sharing your own original aphorism. This assignment will be presented during class time on Friday.

Example:
-Character: Abigail Williams
