AN.5.160. Duppaṭivinodayasutta ("Hard to Get Rid Of")

Aṅguttara Nikāya ("Collections of Numbered Discourses")

“Mendicants, these five things are hard to get rid of once they’ve arisen. What five? Greed, hate, delusion, the feeling of being inspired to speak out, and thoughts of traveling. These five things are hard to get rid of once they’ve arisen.”
