"The five colors blind a person's eyes; The five musical notes deafen a person's ears; The five flavors ruin a person's taste buds. Horse-racing, hunting and chasing, Drive a person's mind (hsin) to madness. Hard-to-get goods, Hinder a person's actions. Therefore the sage is for the belly, not for the eyes. Therefore he leaves this and chooses that."
