5.5.16

lokaḥ svayaṃ śreyasi naṣṭa-dṛṣṭir yo 'rthān samīheta nikāma-kāmaḥ /
anyonya-vairaḥ sukha-leśa-hetor ananta-duḥkhaṃ ca na veda mūḍhaḥ //

16. The world (people) is by nature blind to what is good; it is full of desires and only works towards worldly objects. Ignorant men hating one another for a tittle of pleasure do not see the source of endless misery.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
