42. Verily the soul is like the camel that likes to eat bitter grass, and the ear does not retain much of what it hears, so do not cut off your understanding by being importunate with your soul because for each part of the body there is [need for] repose.

42 إنَّ النَّفْسَ حَمِضَةٌ، والأُذُنَ مَجّاجَةٌ، فَلا تَجُبَّ فَهْمَكَ بِالإلْحاحِ عَلى قَلْبِكَ، فَإنَّ لِكُلِّ عُضْو مِنَ البَدَنِ اِسْتِراحَةً.
