Motto to Live By

My good friend advises: "Don't do anything ridiculous." Yes, good advice. When you are deciding what to do with yourself, you should make sure you don't do anything extremely silly or unreasonable. Sounds reasonable. But maybe not as easy as you think, I mean, we often find ourselves in situations of silliness, and our lives are bounded by unreason, but still it sounds like a good motto to live by.
