Excerpt from Benjamin Franklin’s Speech at the Constitutional Convention
![]() |
| (Benjamin Franklin drawing by Samuel Johnson Woolf - found here) |
“I confess that there are several parts of this constitution which I do not at present approve, but I am not sure I shall never approve them:
For having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged by better information, or fuller consideration, to change opinions even on important subjects, which I once thought right, but found to be otherwise. It is therefore that the older I grow, the more apt I am to doubt my own judgment, and to pay more respect to the judgment of others.”
~Benjamin Franklin
