Counsel the state for the best. Do not be overcome by pleasure. Know how to bear the changes of fortune with nobility. Moderation is best. Leaders should have as their bodyguard not arms but loyalty.
Rest is beautiful.
Rashness has its perils. Pleasures are transient, honors are immortal. Be moderate in prosperity, prudent in adversity. Be the same to your friends whether they are in prosperity or adversity. Whatever agreement you make, stick to it.
