Dhammapada · 18.20

Ākāse va padaṃ natthi, samaṇo natthi bāhire;Papañcābhiratā pajā, nippapañcā tathāgatā.

Akase va padam natthi, samano natthi bahire; Papancabhirata paja, nippapanca tathagata.

There is no path in the sky; there is no recluse outside the Dhamma. The throng delights in proliferation; the Tathagatas are free from proliferation.
