There is measure in all things.
Nos numeros sumus et fruges consumere nati. We are but ciphers, born to consume earth's fruits.
Mountains will go into labour, and a silly little mouse will be born.
Even virtue followed beyond reason's rule May stamp the just man knave, the sage a fool.
For everything divine and human, virtue, fame, and honor, now obey the alluring influence of riches.
Who has self-confidence will lead the rest.
