5Fools
fold their hands
and
consume their own flesh.
6Better
is a handful with quiet
than
two handfuls with toil,
and a
chasing after wind.
Life best
in balance
The golden
mean lies between
Too much
and too little
One who
will not work
Cannot
meet physical need
Therefore
meets no needs
Equilibrium
Living
life in the middle
Meeting
all one’s needs
Theory
of enough
Avoid greed
and hopelessness
Is
adequacy
Inadequacies
Those who
will not work at all
Those
who work to much
The human
psyche
Shaped
by cultural context
Chooses
the extremes
