Life is full of temptation. Temptation can cause us to make inappropriate choices or take things in excess, i.e. throw moderation out of the window.

From the song 'Working Day And Night' by Michael Jackson:

Ooh My Honey
You Got Me Workin' Day And Night,
Ooh My Sugar
You Got Me Workin' Day And Night,

Scratch My Shoulder
It's Aching, Make It Feel Alright,
When This Is Over
Lovin' You Will Be So Right.

"If your interested in balancing work and pleasure, stop trying to balance them. Instead make your work more pleasurable."
- Donald Trump

"Don't confuse having a career with having a life."
- Hillary Rodham Clinton

"You will never feel truly satisfied by work until you are satisfied by life."
- Heather Schuck, The Working Mom Manifesto 

"Most people chase success at work, thinking that will make them happy. The truth is that happiness at work will make you successful."
- Alexander Kjerulf, Happy Hour is 9 to 5

"The path to happiness at work starts with a simple decision: You must want to be happy. If you don’t commit to being happy at work, you won’t be. You won’t make the choices that make you happy. You won’t take the actions needed to get there. You won’t change the things that need to change."
- Alexander Kjerulf, Happy Hour is 9 to 5

"There is no work-life balance. We have one life. What's most important is that you be awake for it."

How do you divide the time between your work and personal life?

From the song 'Too Much Of A Good Thing' by Alan Jackson:

Smiles in the morning as warm as sunshine,
Kisses when I lay down at night,
And 2 loving arms to console me,
I should be scared, it's so right.

But, too much of a good thing is a good thing,
Feelings like this can't be wrong,
And, too much of a good thing is a good thing,
And we've got a good thing going on.

"Balance is the key to success in all things. Do not neglect your mind, body or spirit. Invest time and energy in all of them equally – it will be the best investment you ever make, not just for your life but for whatever is to follow."
- Tanya Wheway

"Excess generally causes reaction, and produces a change in the opposite direction, whether it be in the seasons, or in individuals, or in governments."
- Plato

"I learned very early that our health is always impaired by some excess either of food or abstinence, and I never had any physician except myself."
- Giacomo Casanova

"Fortunate, indeed, is the man who takes exactly the right measure of himself and holds a just balance between what he can acquire and what he can use."
- Peter Latham

"I have heard that, with some persons, temperance – that is, moderation – is almost impossible; and if abstinence be an evil (which some have doubted), no one will deny that excess is a greater. Some parents have entirely prohibited their children from tasting intoxicating liquors; but a parent’s authority cannot last for ever; children are naturally prone to hanker after forbidden things; and a child, in such a case, would be likely to have a strong curiosity to taste, and try the effect of what has been so lauded and enjoyed by others, so strictly forbidden to himself – which curiosity would generally be gratified on the first convenient opportunity; and the restraint once broken, serious consequences might ensue."
- Anne Brontë

"There are those people who can eat one piece of chocolate, one piece of cake, drink one glass of wine. There are even people who smoke one or two cigarettes a week. And then there are people for whom one of anything is not even an option."
- Abigail Thomas, Thinking About Memoir 

"Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler, and whoever is led astray by it is not wise."
- Holy Bible (ESV), Proverbs 20:1

"It is better to rise from life as from a banquet - neither thirsty nor drunken." 
- Aristotle

Balance is the key to success in many areas.

From the song 'Too Much' by Spice Girls:

Too much of something is bad enough,
But something's coming over me to make me wonder.
Too much of nothing is just as tough,
I need to know the way to feel to keep me satisfied.
Too much of nothing so why don't we give it a try,
Too much of something we're gonna be living a lie,
Too much of nothing so why don't we give it a try,
Too much of something we're gonna be living a lie.
