"The five colours blind the eyes of man. The five musical notes deafen the ears of man. The five flavours dull the taste of man. Violent running and hunting disturb the emotions of man. Greed for rare objects is hurtful to the actions of man. That is why the self-controlled man occupies himself with the unseen, he does not occupy himself with the things visible, he puts away the latter and seeks the former."
