न साम रक्षस्सु गुणाय कल्पते
न दानमर्थोपचितेषु युज्यते
Na saama rakshassu gunaaya kalpate
Na daanamarthopachiteshu yujyate
5.41.3
Words of conciliation to the rakshasas will not bring out any good (Soft words will not have any effect on a rakshasa). In the same way one cannot pacify an immensly wealthy person by offering him material things.
[ Context: Soliloquy of Hanuman before he starts destroying the ashoka vana of Ravana and thus show his valour which only will have some effect on the Rakshasas, not saama or daana ]
