Vyasa

“With upraised arms I cry, but no one listens. From Dharma comes wealth, power, and the sensuous pleasure of life. Why don't people practice virtue?”
― Vyasa, Mahabharata

“With the destruction of the family the time-honoured family traditions are lost; and when the traditions are lost, unrigheousness overtakes the whole family. When unrighteousness prevails, O Krishna, the women of the family become corrupt, and when the women are corrupt, there arises a mixture of castes.”
― Vyasa, Bhagavad Gita
