विद्याद्बहु पठन्तं तु बहुपाठीति ब्राह्मणम् । तस्मात्क्षत्रिय मा मंस्था जल्पितेनैव ब्राह्मणम् । य एव सत्यान्नापैति स ज्ञेयो ब्राह्मणस्त्वया॥५-४३-२९॥

One who studies much may be called “much-read”; therefore, O Kṣatriya, do not deem a man a brāhmaṇa merely by his speech. He who does not depart from truth—him you should recognize as a brāhmaṇa.
