A person reaches perfection in how they live when they spend every day as if it were their last day. They are never too heated up in their emotions, but also not so cold and numb that they feel nothing. And they are completely free from pretense.
Then hath a man attained to the estate of perfection in his life and conversation, when he so spends every day, as if it were his last day: never hot and vehement in his affections, nor yet so cold and stupid as one that had no sense; and free from all manner of dissimulation.
