2.60 The turbulent senses, O Arjuna, do violently carry away the mind of a wise man though he be striving (to control them).

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaEnglish

The senses are so strong and impetuous, O Arjuna, that they forcibly carry away the mind even of a man of discrimination who is endeavoring to control them.
