Chapter 18 · Liberation through Renunciation · Krishna said

Bhagavad Gita 18.11 — Letting go of results

न हि देहभृता शक्यं त्यक्तुं कर्माण्यशेषतः। यस्तु कर्मफलत्यागी स त्यागीत्यभिधीयते ॥

na hi dehabhṛtā śakyaṃ tyaktuṃ karmāṇyaśeṣataḥ | yastu karmaphalatyāgī sa tyāgītyabhidhīyate ||

Meaning

No one with a body can give up action completely. So the one who gives up the fruits of action is called the true renouncer.
