Imam Ali (AS) said, Do not surrender yourself to the deception of covetousness and do not respond to the call of greed, for indeed these two [traits] reap wretchedness and disgrace.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لاتُمَلِّكْ نَفْسَكَ بِغُرُورِ الطَّمَعِ وَ لاتُجِبْ دَواعِيَ الشَّرَهِ فَإنَّهُما يَكْسِبانِكَ الشَّقاءَ وَ الذُّلَّ
