Instead of single Epigram for this weekend, here are a selection of maxims from the French atheist,
philosopher, and poet Sylvain Maréchal(1750-1803) and a short poem from Victor Hugo(1802-1885).
As one can see,
Ben Franklin was more of a curator of Epigrams, proverbs, and sayings rather than the author,
despite that he tends to be given full credit today.
