Chapter 9
Overcoming Excessiveness
a
Holding a cup that overflows
Is not as wise as knowing when to stop
b
Keep sharpening your sword
And it will become dull and break
c
Filling your life with the love of money
And no one can protect it
d
Riches and titles bring arrogance
And disaster will follow
When you achieve success and gain fame
e
Remain humble
This is the Way of God
