佛言:「惡人害賢者,猶仰天而唾,唾不污天,還污己身;逆風坋人,塵不污彼,還坋于身。賢者不可毀,禍必滅己也。」

The Buddha said: 'When an evil person harms a worthy one, it is like spitting upward at the sky: the spit does not defile the sky, but falls back and defiles oneself; or like throwing dust against the wind: the dust does not soil the other, but falls back and soils oneself. The worthy cannot be ruined, and calamity is sure to destroy oneself.'
