- A self-indulgent monk has achieved nothing through his renunciation. For what he once did through possessions he still does though possessing nothing.
- Moreover, the self-controlled man, if he clings to possessions, is a brother in spirit of this kind of monk; because they both feel inward enjoyment they have the same mother - though not the same father, since each has a different passion.
- Sometimes a man cuts off a passion in order to indulge himself more fully, and he is praised by those unaware of his aim. He may even be unaware of it himself, and so his action is self-defeating.
- All vice is caused by self-esteem and sensual pleasure; you cannot overcome passion without hating them.
