“One who loves their belly hates their rank (or status).”

Meaning

This proverb implies that someone who prioritizes immediate physical gratification (such as eating or comfort – 'loving their belly') will neglect their duties, responsibilities, or the effort required to maintain or achieve a respected social status or rank. It's a critique of self-indulgence and laziness over ambition and honor.
