महाभारत - उद्योग पर्व - तृष्णा


यत् पृथिव्यां व्रीहियवं हिरण्यं पशवः स्त्रियः |
नालमेकस्य तत्सर्वमिति मत्वा शमं व्रजेत् ||


- महाभारत - उद्योग पर्व


All the food grains, gold, animals (husbandry/poultry/cattle) and the women in the world, if given to one person will also never satisfy him. Hence, one must stop efforts towards satisfying greed and concentrate on eliminating it.

- Mahabharata, Udyoga Parva
