Hitopdesh • Chapter 3 • Shloka 90
अन्यच्च । कमण्डलूपमोऽमात्यस्तनुत्यागो बहुग्रहः ।
नृपते किंक्षणो मूर्खो दरिद्रः किंवराटकः ॥
Moreover, a minister is like a gourd that gives out little and takes in much. A man who talks lightly (i.e., does not care for them and so wastes them) of a moment remains a fool, O king, while one who talks lightly of a cowri remains a pauper.
