Dhammapada · 4.16
Evaṃ saṅkārabhūtesu, andhabhūte puthujjane;Atirocati paññāya, sammāsambuddhasāvako.
Evam sankarabhutesu, andhabhute puthujjane; Atirocati pannaya, sammasambuddhasavako.
Even so, among the rubbish-like beings, among the blind ordinary folk, the disciple of the Perfectly Awakened One shines forth by wisdom.
