Aliud vinum, aliud ebrietas

Aliud vinum, aliud ebrietas (~Wine is one thing. Drunkenness is something else).

From Latin Proverb of the Day blog by Bob Patrick (via rogueclassicism):
This proverb has many expressions: balance in all things; avoid extremes; the middle way; vital balance; don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
A good lesson, more specifically, on how to enjoy alcohol without abusing it to the point of inebriation and sickness!
