Wealth And Sex Attracts Suffering 财色招苦

财色于人,人之不舍,
譬如刀刃有蜜,不足一餐之美。
小儿舔之,则有割舌之患。

— 释迦牟尼佛
《四十二章经》: 第二十二章

Of wealth and sex given to people, of people not renouncing them, for example, are like having a knife’s blade with honey, not enough for satisfaction of one meal. A small child licking it, thus will have suffering of cutting the tongue.

— Śākyamuni Buddha
(Sūtra Of 42 Sections: 22nd Section)
