饱暖思淫欲饥寒起盗心
[băo nuăn sī yín yù jī hán qĭ dào xīn]
'饱暖思淫欲饥寒起盗心' (bǎo nuǎn sī yín yù jī hán qǐ dào xīn) means 'Sated and warm, one thinks of desires; starving and cold, thoughts turn to theft'. It reflects the Chinese proverb that when basic needs are met, people might think of pleasures; otherwise, desperation leads to immoral behavior.
