"When will the quest end for fortune and fame,
This tyrant of early rising and retiring late?
Riding on mules they long for noble steeds;
By now prime ministers, they hope to be kings.
For food and raiment they suffer stress and strain,
Never fearingYama's call to reckoning.
Seeking wealth and power to give to sons of sons,
There's not one ever willing to turn back."
--spoken by Sun WuKong
