Pandarus: Be moderate, be moderate.
Cressida: Why tell you me of moderation?
The grief is fine, full, perfect, that I taste,
And violenteth in a sense as strong
As that which causeth it.
How can I moderate it?
(William Shakespeare, The History of Troilus and Cressida (Pandarus & Cressida at IV, iv))

There is a limit to enjoyment, though the sources of wealth be boundless, and the choicest pleasures of life lie with the ring of moderation. -- Martin Farquhar Tupper, Proverbial Philosophy--Of Compensation (l. 15)

If garlic powder is made from garlic, and olive oil is made from olives, what are baby powder and baby oil made from? One must also consider foot powder and toothpaste.

Softens Your Hands as You Do Dishes

According to Merriam Webster Online the word stupid appears to have originated in 1541. Imagine this, before 1541 nobody was stupid! This sounds very nice, but then I get a little sad because of 1541 and the introduction of the word stupid. Who was the first person officially known as stupid? Did this bother the person to be called stupid?

Happy thought, perhaps this person was so stupid he or she didn't know that being called stupid was not a compliment.
