Idleness, though temporarily agreeable, ends in misery, and labour with
skill, though temporarily painful, ends in happiness. Affluence,
Prosperity, Modesty, Contentment, and Fame dwell in labour and skill but
not in idleness. Friends are not competent to bestow happiness, nor
foes competent to inflict misery. Similarly wisdom does not bring wealth
nor does wealth bring happiness. Since, O son of Kunti, thou hast been
created by the Maker to engage thyself in Work. Success springs from
Work. Thou art not fit, O king, to avoid Work.
