This article has an excerpt out of Benjamin Franklin's autobiography on how he categorized and sought after virtues. He also talks about how hard it was to live up to these virtues.

I think there is a lot to learn from his words, but, as a Christian, I do think his one mistake was not relying more on God and trying to be good solely by his own power.

By his attempts, successes, and failures, we can learn a lot about human nature and virtue.
