The Cloud of Unknowing
Now if you ask me what sort of moderation you should observe …. I will tell you.
In contemplative work, none at all, but in everything else such as eating, drinking, and sleeping moderation is the rule. Avoid extremes of heat and cold; guard against too much and too little in reading, prayer or social involvement. In all these things, I say again, keep to the middle path
But in love take no measure. Indeed, I wish that you had never to cease from the work of love
