“Great beauty, great strengths, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all.”

Benjamin Franklin

This quote means that even though other characteristics are very important the most valuable and important one is having a great heart. By having a great heart you will be generous a very sympathetic reliable person. Nothing is better than having a great heart. If you have good positive vibes you will get that back in return and that means you have a great heart. Now if you don't have a great heart and are ruthless, mean, stingy etc you will only be bringing negative vibes to your life.  An example of a person with a great heart is Ellen Degeneres. I say she is a person with a great heart because she always gives back. Ellen has helped so many people in need and doesn't second guess it. Ellen always give back to people who deserve it and opens many doors for them. She sure is a bright person. Now say she was the opposite of how she really is. If she didn't have a great heart she wouldn't be a role model, wouldn't even have the things she has today. Her great heart has helped her a lot without even knowing. If you have a great heart you will have a great future. You can kiss a good future goodbye if you don't have a great heart because having one is very very important.
