"Studious of ease, and fond of humble things,
Below the smiles, below the frowns of kings:
Thanks to my stars, I prize the sweets of life,
No sleepless nights I count, no days of strife.
I rest, I wake, I drink, I sometimes love,
I read, I write, I settle, or I rove;
Cotent to live, content to die unknown,
Lord of myself, accountable to none."
— Benjamin Franklin
