I'd say moderation in most things, especially at Thanksgiving when you have an urge to eat that second piece of pecan pie. -- jim k, Austin, Tx
That's my motto! -- E Archer, NYC
Well, if moderation is moderated, won't that lead to increasing the amount of thing that is being moderated? And if there is moderation in excess, will that be absence or uncontrollable use of a resource? This quote deserves deeper context. -- Arthur, Albany, NY
