Thirukkural 37

by Thiruvalluvar

அறத்தாறு இதுவென வேண்டா சிவிகை பொறுத்தானோடு ஊர்ந்தான் இடை.

Aratthāru iduvena vēṇḍā sivikaí porutthānōdu ūrnthān iḍai.

Do not claim that the path of virtue lies between the patient porter and the bearer he carries. The bearer's burden makes no claims; virtue stands alone.
