Verse 5.15.23

सर्वैव लोकयात्रेयं प्रोता तृष्णावरत्रया ।
रज्जुबन्धाद्विमुच्यन्ते तृष्णाबन्धान्न केचन ॥ २३ ॥

sarvaiva lokayātreyaṃ protā tṛṣṇāvaratrayā |
rajjubandhādvimucyante tṛṣṇābandhānna kecana || 23 ||

All this concourse of men, is impelled to and fro by avarice, as if they are pulled by ropes; it is easy to break the band of ropes, but not the bond of avarice.
