                 திருக்குறள்

இரந்தும் உயிர்வாழ்தல் வேண்டின் பரந்து
கெடுக உலகியற்றி யான்.

Kural 1061

Prose
If he that shaped the world desires that men should begging go,
Through life's long course, let him a wanderer be and perish so.
Translation
If the Creator of the world has decreed even begging as a means of livelihood, may he too go abegging and perish.
