14How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"[g]

I was waiting for this comment. ;)
I think it depends on what is being preached. I'd say maybe the ant is the best preacher of "Industry". Preaching the Gospel is going to take words--to the degree that nature itself falls short.

Russell not wanting to log out of Sharon's account. Paul preached Christ and him crucified. Industry or any other subject is only preaching to the degree it shows some aspect of Christ's excellence. Other wise it is just forceful talking.
As an aside, forceful talking is rude, particularly when God's people have gathered to hear God's word preached.

"From that time Jesus began to preach..." (Matthew 4:17)
Jesus preached, and given that He created the ant, it's a pretty safe bet to say He preached better than the ant.
Since Benjamin Franklin didn't bow the knee to Christ, it should come as no surprise that he spouted foolishness from time to time.
