Dhammapada · 12.10
Attadatthaṃ paratthena, bahunāpi na hāpaye;Attadatthamabhiññāya, sadatthapasuto siyā.
Attadattham paratthena, bahunapi na hapaye; Attadatthamabhinnaya, sadatthapasuto siya.
Let none neglect his own welfare for the welfare of others, however great. Knowing one's own welfare clearly, be intent on it.
