Moderation in All
"Filling all the way to the brim Is not as good as halting in time. Pounding an edge to sharpness Will not make it last. Keeping plenty of gold and jade in the palace Makes no one able to defend it. Displaying riches and titles with pride Brings about one's downfall. To retreat after a work well done is Heaven's Way."
