אָמְנָם, מִי לֹא יֵדַע שֶׁמִּלְּבִישַׁת הַפְּאֵר וְהָרִקְמָה תִּמָּשֵׁךְ הַגַּאֲוָה וְגַם הַזְּנוּת יִגְבֹּל בָּהּ, מִלְּבַד הַקִּנְאָה וְהַתַּאֲוָה וְהָעֹשֶׁק הַנִּמְשָׁכִים מִכָּל מָה שֶׁהוּא יָקָר עַל אָדָם לְהַשִּׂיגוֹ, וּכְבָר אָמְרוּ זַ"ל (בראשית רבה כב): כֵּיוָן שֶׁרוֹאֶה הַיֵּצֶר אָדָם שֶׁתּוֹלֶה בַּעֲקֵבוֹ, מְמַשְׁמֵשׁ בְּגָדָיו וּמְסַלְסֵל בִּשְׂעָרוֹ, אוֹמֵר, זֶה שֶׁלִּי.
But, who does not know that fancy clothing and ornaments will draw a person to arrogance, and also licentiousness will mix its way in, aside from giving rise to jealousy, lust, and oppressing others which are generated by whatever man deems precious to attain. Our sages already said: "as soon as the Evil Inclination sees a man swinging his heels [when walking], smoothing his garments, and curling his hair, he says - this one is mine!"(Bereishis Raba 22:6).
