More From Benjamin Franklin

Antisthenes used to say that envious people were devoured by their own disposition, just as iron is by rust. envy of others comes from comparing what they have with what the envious person has, rather than the envious person realising they have more than what they could have and certainly more than some others and being grateful. it is really just an inability to get a correct perspective on their lives.
Gratitude Grateful Iron
Being blind is as simple as closing your eyes. the blind don't act any different than you or i. you never see a blind person going around saying, 'i'm blind.' so if you want to play blind just close your eyes and keep them closed and fare thee well.
Eye Simple Play
Why did we become blind, i don't know, perhaps one day we'll find out, do you want me to tell you what i think, yes, do, i don't think we did go blind, i think we are blind, blind but seeing, blind people who can see, but do not see.

The entire principle of a blind taste test was ridiculous. they shouldn't have cared so much that they were losing blind taste tests with old coke, and we shouldn't at all be surprised that pepsi's dominance in blind taste tests never translated to much in the real world. why not? because in the real world, no one ever drinks coca-cola blind.

Take for example providing a guide dog for a blind person. that's a good thing to do, right? all right. it is a good thing to do. but you have to think what else you could do with the resources. it costs about $40,000 to train a guide dog and train the recipient so that the guide dog can be an effective help to a blind person. it costs somewhere between 20 and $50 to cure a blind person in a developing country if they have trachoma. so you do the sums, and you could provide one guide dog for one blind american or you could cure between 400 and 2,000 people of blindness.
