Imam Ali (AS) said, Take from this world that which comes to you and turn away from that which turns away from you, but if you dont do this then [at least] be moderate in what you seek.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : خُذْ مِنَ الدُّنيْا ما أتاكَ وَ تَوَلَّ عَمّا تَوَلّى مِنْها عَنْكَ فَإنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ فَأجْمِلْ فِي الطَّلَبِ
