Send the following quote to a friend:
"For both excessive and insufficient exercise destroy one's strength, and both eating and drinking too much or too little destroy health, whereas the right quantity produces, increases or preserves it. So it is the same with temperance, courage and the other virtues...
This much then, is clear: in all our conduct it is the mean that is to be commended."
~ Aristotle Quotes
from The Nicomachean Ethics
