Quote by Esquilo

“No debe alabarse ningún extremo. No anheles ni una vida sin libertad, ni una sin freno. La virtud ha sido expuesta por los dioses en el justo medio. Los dos extremos son repulsivos a sus ojos. En verdad, la insolencia es hija de la impiedad. ¡Pero una sabiduría firme tiene por hija la felicidad amada por todos!”
