the road of excess, the palace of wisdom, etc.

[Bill Millard]

Apropos of an exchange between Henry & Heikki:

> > Moderation in moderation - Husky Mariner

[...]

> Anyway, the last saying reminds me of an old Finnish proverb:
> "Too much is too much, but moderation is not enough".

A version of this I remember as my dad's parting advice the day he 
dropped me off to start my freshman year of college: "Moderation in 
all things, son, including moderation."  I always figured TRP tends 
to think along the same lines.

Much holiday cheer, and not necessarily in moderation,
Bill
