Atharv Veda 5/18.

Such wise counsel ignored is like deadly poisonous reptiles in a leather pouch. These reptiles are blood thirsty, and once they start escaping due to hunger , from their hideouts they are impossible to hunt down.
(Can we not see the failures of our Indian rulers in proper handling of problems of deprived tribal people and the present ‘Naxalite’ situation?)

Rulers who believe in strength, corner all wealth for personal gains, kill sane voices thinking that they are no physical threat, and banishes wise counsel , what they eat as food for their existence, is but a deadly potion that engulfs the entire nation in fire of an inferno. Such rulers earn hatred of every body.

These fools ( the short sighted rulers) who feast to enjoy at the expense of public interests, do not realize that what they swallow down are not sweets but poisons with hundreds of barbs, that will tear him down.
