"The five colours make people's eyes go blind the five tones make people's ears go deaf the five flavours make people's mouths turn sour. Galloping and racing, bunting and chasing, make people's minds go mad. Goods hard to come by corrupt people's ways. And so the Wise Person: Goes by the belly, not by the eye. Yes: He leaves 'that' aside, and attends to 'this'."
