Niti Shatkam • Chapter 1 • Shloka 5
लभेत सिकतासु तैलमपि यत्नत: पीडयन्पिबेच्च मृगतृष्णिकासु सलिलं पिपासार्दित:।
कदाचिदपि पर्यटन् शशविषाणमासादयेत्न तु प्रतिनिविष्टमूर्खजनचित्तमाराधयेत् ।
Perhaps someone can get oil out of the sand with some trick, maybe someone can quench his thirst with the water of a mirage; Perhaps someone roaming around on the earth may find the horn of a porcupine; But no one can control the mind of a stubborn, foolish person.
