Verse 3.20.53

भुक्तेऽप्यभुक्तधीर्दृष्टमित्यलङ्कितवादिषु ।
शून्यमाकीर्णतामेति तुल्यं व्यसनमुत्सवैः ।
विप्रलम्भोऽपि लाभश्च मदस्वप्नादिसंविदि ॥ ५३ ॥

bhukte'pyabhuktadhīrdṛṣṭamityalaṅkitavādiṣu |
śūnyamākīrṇatāmeti tulyaṃ vyasanamutsavaiḥ |
vipralambho'pi lābhaśca madasvapnādisaṃvidi || 53 ||

So when a sated man says he is starving, or one declares he is an eye witness of a thing he has not seen, or an empty space is full of people, or that he has got a lost treasure in his dream, who is there to believe him?
