Letter "F" » Friedrich Max Muller Quotes
«Sons are no help, nor a father, nor relations; there is no help from kinsfolk for one whom death has seized.»
Author: Friedrich Max Muller
«A wise and good man who knows the meaning of this, should quickly clear the way that leads to Nirv?na.»
Author: Friedrich Max Muller
«If by leaving a small pleasure one sees a great pleasure, let a wise man leave the small pleasure, and look to the great.»
Author: Friedrich Max Muller
«He who, by causing pain to others, wishes to obtain pleasure for himself, he, entangled in the bonds of hatred, will never be free from hatred.»
Author: Friedrich Max Muller
«Wise people do not call that a strong fetter which is made of iron, wood, or hemp; far stronger is the care for precious stones and rings, for sons and a wife.»
Author: Friedrich Max Muller
«That fetter wise people call strong which drags down, yields, but is difficult to undo; after having cut this at last, people leave the world, free from cares, and leaving desires and pleasures behind.»
Author: Friedrich Max Muller
«Those who are slaves to passions, run down with the stream (of desires), as a spider runs down the web which he has made himself; when they have cut this, at last, wise people leave the world free from cares, leaving all affection behind.»
Author: Friedrich Max Muller
«Men, driven on by thirst, run about like a snared hare; held in fetters and bonds, they undergo pain for a long time, again and again.»
Author: Friedrich Max Muller
«As a tree, even though it has been cut down, is firm so long as its root is safe, and grows again, thus, unless the feeders of thirst are destroyed, the pain (of life) will return again and again.»
Author: Friedrich Max Muller
«The channels run everywhere, the creeper (of passion) stands sprouting; if you see the creeper springing up, cut its root by means of knowledge.»
