प्रवृत्तिं च निवृत्तिं च जना न विदुरासुराः।न शौचं नापि चाचारो न सत्यं तेषु विद्यते।।16.7।।

Leaders who ignore ethical boundaries lose clarity on right action. Integrity and truthfulness are essential foundations for sound decision-making and sustainable success.
Translation
Neither do the demoniacal persons understand what should be done and what should not be done; nor do they possess purity, good conduct, or truthfulness.
