bhattā rasā bhoi! jahāi ṇe vao na jīviyaṭṭhā pajahāmi bhoe |
lābhaṃ alābhaṃ ca suhaṃ ca dukkhaṃ saṃcikkhamāṇo carissāmi monaṃ ||

'We have finished enjoying pleasures, my dear; our life is drawing to its close. I do not abandon pleasures for the sake of an unholy life; but looking with indifference on gain and loss, on happiness and suffering, I shall lead the life of a monk.'

Hermann Jacobi 1895, Uttarâdhyayana Sûtra (Gaina Sûtras II, SBE 45)
