“Great rulers of men, even those who are learned, meet frustration and failure because of material lust. Driven by lust, these kings place great hope and faith in the dead lump of flesh called the body, even though the material frame is as fleeting as bubbles of foam on water.
Srimad Bhagavata Purana

मूल श्लोकः
काम एष नरेन्द्राणां मोघः स्याद्विदुषामपि । येन फेनोपमे पिण्डे येऽतिविश्रम्भिता नृपाः
kāma eṣa narendrāṇāṃ moghaḥ syādviduṣāmapi | yena phenopame piṇḍe ye'tiviśrambhitā nṛpāḥ
