We need not court food or sleep; they are ready to greet us themselves. Speech not measured to the occasion is futile; much or little, it is a weariness to the flesh. He alone knows self-content who knows when he has had enough by signs within him. Tuka says, Do nothing which will distress you; then you may live as you please.
