The correct answer is: A good example is the best sermon.
Indeed, it is quite easy to be preachy about anything but it is actions that count, not words, to judge a person’s moral character. People generally tend to be more impressed and to follow one’s example than to follow one’s words. It is a very Christian principle since as the parabole in Matthew 7:15-20 states (New King James Version (NKJV)
“You Will Know Them by Their Fruits
15“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.”
During Franklin’s time people were very religious and they would have immediately identified the Christian reference in this maxim.

Explanation:
Question words (also called interrogative words) are words we use to ask questions. <em>How </em>is one of them.
Negative sentences are usually formed by adding the word <em>not </em>after the auxiliary verb (in the second question - after <em>are</em>).
We use the phrase <em>used to </em>to talk about things in the past which are no longer true. In the third sentence, <em>at one time</em> can be omitted because, if we use <em>used to</em>, it's understood that something happened at one time.
When we're converting passive voice into active voice and don't know who the subject is, we can use <em>they </em>as the subject.
Direct speech quotes someone's words directly - in the exact way they were spoken.
Tag questions are questions we ask to get confirmation. We attach a tag question to the end of a statement, turning the entire statement into a question. If the main clause is positive, the tag question will be negative (and the other way around).
Lenny does die. George shoots Lenny out of mercy, since Curley had threatened Lenny since he killed his wife and George thought a quick death was more merciful.
