Ecclesiastes 6:7-9

7All the labour of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.1 8For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?

9Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this is also vanity and vexation of spirit.2
