Bhagavad Gita 11.29 — Like moths into fire

यथा प्रदीप्तं ज्वलनं पतङ्गा विशन्ति नाशाय समृद्धवेगाः। तथैव नाशाय विशन्ति लोकास्- तवापि वक्त्राणि समृद्धवेगाः ॥

yathā pradīptaṃ jvalanaṃ pataṅgā viśanti nāśāya samṛddhavegāḥ | tathaiva nāśāya viśanti lokāsa- tavāpi vaktrāṇi samṛddhavegāḥ ||

Meaning

As moths fly fast into a blazing fire to their own end, so these people rush at full speed into your mouths to be destroyed.
