“There is no disaster greater than not being content; There is no misfortune greater than being covetous.”
“There is no guilt greater than to sanction ambition;”
“no fault greater than the wish to be getting.”
“no calamity greater than to be discontented with one's lot;”
“There is no calamity greater than lightly engaging in war.”
“the more implements to add to their profit that the people have, the greater disorder is there in the state and clan;”
