65

Muhuttamapi ce viññū,
paṇḍitaṃ payirupāsati;
Khippaṃ dhammaṃ vijānāti,
jivhā sūparasaṃ yathā.

If an intelligent man be associated for one minute only with a wise man, he will soon perceive the truth, as the tongue perceives the taste of soup.

Friedrich Max Müller 1881, The Dhammapada (Sacred Books of the East 10.1)
