ગુજરાતીગીતશાસ્ત્ર ૩૯:૧૧
જ્યારે તમે લોકોને તેઓનાં પાપોને કારણે શિક્ષા કરો છો, ત્યારે તમે તેની સુંદરતાનો પતંગિયાની જેમ નાશ કરી દો છો; નિશ્ચે દરેક લોકો કંઈ જ નથી પણ વ્યર્થ છે.
हिन्दीभजन संहिता ३९:११
जब तू मनुष्य को अधर्म के कारण डाँट-डपटकर ताड़ना देता है; तब तू उसकी सामर्थ्य को पतंगे के समान नाश करता है; सचमुच सब मनुष्य वृथाभिमान करते हैं।
