"Cleanliness. Tolerate no uncleanliness in body, cloths, or habitation. " -Benjamin Franklin.
The more I think about Ben's virtue of Cleanliness, the more strange it is. Ben didn't want to clean more. He wanted to not tolerate uncleanliness. It seams that nagging your wife until she cleans would also be a virtue.
I'm sure that's not what he ment. It's fun to read it that way.
