Tao Bible - Proverbs 13:10

Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.
~ King James version ~

Pride, in the form of unfettered desire, leads to suffering.
~ possible Taoist alternative ~
Both offerings say much the same thing. When we become too full of ourselves, we erect a barrier between us and the cosmos (or divine).
