    Wealth, status, pride,

    are their own ruin.

    later

    Racing, chasing, hunting,

    drives people crazy.

    Trying to get rich

    ties people in knots.

    and

    True leaders

    are hardly known to their followers.

    Next after them are the leaders

    the people know and admire;

    after them, those they fear;

    after them, those they despise.
