Verse 4.23.55

पूर्णस्तु प्राकृतोऽप्यन्यत्पुनरप्यभिवाञ्छते ।
जगत्पूरणयोग्याम्बुर्गृह्णात्येवार्णवो जलम् ॥ ५५ ॥

pūrṇastu prākṛto'pyanyatpunarapyabhivāñchate |
jagatpūraṇayogyāmburgṛhṇātyevārṇavo jalam || 55 ||

The mind that is naturally greedy, wishes for more with all its fulness; as the sea with the sufficiency of its water to overflood the earth, receives the rain waters and the outpourings of innumerable rivers in its insatiate womb.
