ARISTOTLE'S GOLDEN MEAN
Alexander the Great of Macedonia was not known for moderation. But as fate would have it, his teacher was Aristotle, who must have at least mentioned it during his education.
The Golden Mean preceded Thomas Jefferson's idea of moderation, but it describes the balance that goes back to ancient China and the balance of nature called Yin-Yang.
I like this table that outlines some of the details.
