Do not toil to aquire wealth;
be discerning enough to desist.
When your eyes light on it, it is gone,
for suddenly it sprouts wings,
flying like an eagle toward heaven.
Do not eat the bread of a greedy man,
do not desire his delicacies,
for he is like one who is inwardly calculating.
"Eat! Drink!" he says to you,
but his heart is not with you.
You will vomit up the morsels you have eaten,
and waste your pleasant words.
Solomon, Book of Proverbs
