The almanac was known for its witty sayings, practical advice, and aphorisms, reflecting Franklin's views on frugality, industry, and common sense. The character of Poor Richard embodies the values of the American colonies during the 18th century and has become a symbol of American wisdom and ingenuity. Franklin used this persona to engage readers and disseminate his ideas on self-improvement and civic responsibility.
