And William Coleman, then a merchant's clerk, about my age, who had the coolest, clearest head, the best heart, and the exactest morals of almost any man I ever met with. He became afterwards a merchant of great note, and one of our provincial judges. Our friendship continued without interruption to his death, upward of forty years; and the club continued almost as long, and was the best school of philosophy, morality, and politics that then existed in the province; for our queries, which were read the week preceding their discussion, put us upon reading with attention upon the several subjects, that we might speak more to the purpose; and here, too, we acquired better habits of conversation, every thing being studied in our rules which might prevent our disgusting each other. From hence the long continuance of the club, which I shall have frequent occasion to speak further of hereafter.

白话
富兰克林提到威廉·科尔曼,当时是商行职员,与他同龄,头脑最冷静清晰,心地最好,品行最端正。科尔曼后来成了名商人和省法官,两人友谊持续四十多年直到科尔曼去世。他们创办的俱乐部也维持了近同样久,是当时全省最好的哲学、道德和政治学校。因为讨论题提前一周发下,大家会认真读书准备,发言更有内容;俱乐部规则还专门培养良好交谈习惯,避免彼此反感。
上下文
出自《富兰克林自传》。富兰克林回忆与科尔曼的终身友谊,以及他们创办的“皮围裙俱乐部”如何通过提前发题、制定规则来提升讨论质量。
