Everything that exceeds the bounds of moderation has an unstable foundation.

Seneca the Younger

In caring for others and serving heaven, There is nothing like using restraint.

Laozi

Moderation in all things. And even moderation in moderation. Don't get too much moderation, you know?

George C. Wolfe

For as one star another far exceeds, So souls in heaven are placed by their deeds.

Robert Greene

On my show I share all these yummy, fattening recipes, but I tell people, in moderation, in moderation. You can have that little piece of pie.
