Verse 7.100.35

स्थैर्यास्थैर्येण भूतानां किमपूर्वमतौ भवेत् ।
भूतस्थैर्ये तथास्थैर्ये सुखं चैवासुखं समम् ॥ ३५ ॥

sthairyāsthairyeṇa bhūtānāṃ kimapūrvamatau bhavet |
bhūtasthairye tathāsthairye sukhaṃ caivāsukhaṃ samam || 35 ||

There are some that maintain the stability, and others asserting the frailty of the world and every thing; but what do they gain by these opinions, since the knowledge of either, neither augments the amount of human happiness, nor lessens any quantity of mortal misery.
