Bhagavad Gita 3.39 — An unquenchable fire

आवृतं ज्ञानमेतेन ज्ञानिनो नित्यवैरिणा। कामरूपेण कौन्तेय दुष्पूरेणानलेन च ॥

āvṛtaṃ jñānametena jñānino nityavairiṇā | kāmarūpeṇa kaunteya duṣpūreṇānalena ca ||

Meaning

Knowledge is covered by this constant enemy of the wise, desire, which is like a fire that can never be satisfied, Arjuna.
