10.10.8

/0 śrī-nārada uvāca
na hy anyo juṣato joṣyān buddhi-bhraṃśo rajo-guṇaḥ /
śrī-madād ābhijātyādir yatra strī dyūtam āsavaḥ //

8. In the case of a man, who gives himself up to fascinating pleasures, no other cause, no other form of Rajoguna, such as the pride of high birth or learning, is so powerful to bring about the loss of good sense as the pride of wealth and power; for, where this (is strong), _there_ find place women, gambling, and wine.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
