The title "Enough" made me think of this great poem/story from Kurt Vonnegut:

  True story, Word of Honor:
  Joseph Heller, an important and funny writer
  now dead,
  and I were at a party given by a billionaire
  on Shelter Island.
  
  I said, “Joe, how does it make you feel
  to know that our host only yesterday
  may have made more money
  than your novel ‘Catch-22’
  has earned in its entire history?”
  And Joe said, “I’ve got something he can never have.”
  And I said, “What on earth could that be, Joe?”
  And Joe said, “The knowledge that I’ve got enough.”
  Not bad! Rest in peace!
