Chanakya Niti • Chapter 17 • Shloka 6
अशवतस्तुभवेत्साधुर्ब्रह्मचारी च निर्धनः ।
व्याधिष्ठो देवभक्तश्च वृद्धा नारी पतिव्रता ।।
When a man has no strength left in him he becomes a sadhu, one without wealth acts like a brahmacari, a sick man behaves like a devotee of the Lord, and when a woman grows old she becomes devoted to her husband.
