[kailasanath]

A wrong action may not bring its reaction at once, even as fresh milk turns not sour at once: like a smouldering fire concealed under ashes it consumes the wrongdoer, the fool.

The Dhammapada translated by Juan Mascaró

[kailasanath]

If a fool can see his own folly, he in this at least is wise; but the fool who thinks he is wise, he indeed is the real fool.
