He who...

Daily Buddhist Wisdom
He who, depraved, devoid of truthfulness & self-control, puts on the ochre robe, doesn't deserve the ochre robe. But he who is free of depravity endowed with truthfulness & self-control, well-established in the precepts, truly deserves the ochre robe.
- Dhammapada, 1, translation by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.
