Srila Prabhupada says, “There are two kinds of envious living entities. One is the snake; another is the man snake, or a man habituated to the snake quality.”…….
Prabhupada: Without any fault they are finding fault. This is snake. No fault, but still fault-finding and giving us trouble. So you’ll find so many persons, without any fault they’ll bite. A snake, without any fault… You are passing, and you are taking some fruit from the tree. If there is snake, it will bite. So Canakya Pandita said, “There are two kinds of envious living entities. One is the snake; another is the man snake, or a man habituated to the snake quality.” But Canakya Pandita said, “This man snake is more dangerous than the animal snake.” Why? “You can subdue the snake by chanting a snake mantra or some drug, but this man snake cannot be subdued.” It is very, very dangerous.

Prabhupada: Fault-finding men will always be there, that is the history of the world, but one has to execute his prescribed duties.
