महाभारत - आदि पर्व - विद्या

अधीयानः पण्डितं मन्यमानो
    यो विद्यया हन्ति यशः परेषाम् ।
तस्यांतवंतश्च भान्ति लोका
    न चास्य तद् ब्रह्म फलं ददाति ॥

- महाभारत, आदि पर्व

adhIyAnaH panDitam manyamAno
    yo vidyayA hanti yashaH pareShAm ।
tasyAntavantashcha bhavanti lokA
    na cha asya tad brahma phalam dadAti ॥

- mahAbhArata, Adi parva

One who wants to be educated must not think he is a scholar already. He must also not use his education to kill someone else's fame. If he does that, he may get the world, but it is not permanent. He will not attain the eternal peace. (because he will be constantly on the guard that someone else may kill his fame)
