5.5.23

na brāhmaṇais tulaye bhūtam anyat paśyāmi viprāḥ kim ataḥ paraṃ tu /
yasmin nṛbhiḥ prahutaṃ śraddhayāham aśnāmi kāmaṃ na tathāgni-hotre //

23. I do not think that any other being is equal to Brahmans; O Brahmans: whom should I then consider superior to them? What is offered by men to Brahmans with faith, I eat (accept) with satisfaction; but not so what is offered into the fire in a sacrifice.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
