Dhammapada 6 [Khuddaka Nikaya]


I- Yamakavagga, The Pairs
5- Kosambaka Vatthu

Pare ca na vijananti, mayamettha yamamase;
ye ca tattha vijananti, tato sammanti medhaga.

People, other than the wise, do not realize, "We in this world must all die," (and, not realizing it, continue their quarrels). The wise realize it and thereby their quarrels cease.
