There is moderation even in excess.

Excess on occasion is exhilarating. It prevents moderation from acquiring the deadening effect of a habit.

You gotta take care of yourself; you can't do anything in excess.

The best things carried to excess are wrong.

I'm of those who believe that excesses in all matters are not a good idea, whether it's formation of bubbles, whether it's excess in the financial market, whether it's excess of inequality, it has to be watched, it has to be measured, and it has to be anticipated in terms of consequences.

Nothing exceeds like excess.

I never smoke to excess - that is, I smoke in moderation, only one cigar at a time.

I am bound to add that the excess in too little has ever proved in me more dangerous than the excess in too much; the last may cause indigestion, but the first causes death.
