In my futile life I have seen everything:
there is a righteous man who perishes in spite
of his righteousness, and there is a wicked
man who lives long in spite of his evil.
Don't be excessively righteous,
and don't be overly wise. Why should
you destroy yourself? Don't be
excessively wicked, and don't
be foolish. Why should you die
before your time? It is good that you
grasp the one and do not let the
other slip from your hand.
For the one who fears God
will end up with both of them.
Ecclesiastes 7:15-18 [emphasis mine]
Balance, baby. Balance.
