शुनः पुच्छमिव व्यर्थं जीवितं विद्यया विना । न गुह्यगोपने शक्तं न च दंशनिवारणे ॥१९II

sanskrit

Life without knowledge is meaningless like a dog's tail. A dog's tail neither covers its dignity nor can it drive away other creatures like flies etc. In the same way, a foolish man can neither hide a secret nor make the attacks of his enemies ineffective.
