Quote by Benjamin Franklin

Some are weather-wise, some are otherwise.

Some are weather-wise, some are otherwise.

Summary

This quote suggests that people can be categorized into two groups: those who are knowledgeable and well-prepared when it comes to dealing with weather conditions (literal or figurative), and those who are not. It implies that being weather-wise, or having the ability to adapt and react to changing circumstances, is a valuable trait. However, it also acknowledges that not everyone possesses this skill, and some are "otherwise," meaning they may struggle or be unprepared when faced with various challenges.

The decay of decency in the modern age, the rebellion agains

The decay of decency in the modern age, the rebellion against law and good faith, the treatment of human beings as things, as the mere instruments of power and ambition, is without a doubt the consequence of the decay of the belief in man as something more than an animal animated by highly conditioned reflexes and chemical reactions. For, unless man is something more than that, he has no rights that anyone is bound to respect, and there are no limitations upon his conduct which he is bound to obey.
