"Todo con moderación, incluida la moderación"
— Julia Child

Simplified Meaning:
Balancing all aspects of life is important, even the idea of balance itself. For example, eating desserts occasionally is fine, but having too many or never having any can both be bad. This idea can apply beyond food to things like work, exercise, and leisure. It's good to work hard but taking breaks is also necessary. However, strictly following the rule of moderation can sometimes stop you from enjoying life's special moments, like staying up late for a celebration. So, it's all about finding a middle ground but allowing yourself some flexibility when needed. By being moderate most of the time but also knowing when to let go a little, you can lead a more fulfilling life.
