Additional quotes by Friedrich Max Müller

इतिहास ने हमारे लिए कम से कम इस अवशेष को सुरक्षित रखा है ताकि हम यह सीख सकें कि यदि मनुष्य के पास स्वर्ग को नर्क बना सकने की अनोखी कला न होती तो दृश्यों से और पृथ्वी में मनुष्य के जीवन को स्वर्ग बना सकने वाली परिस्थितियों से घिरे हुए, मानव मस्तिष्क को यदि उस पर ही छोड़ दिया जाए तो वह क्या कुछ हासिल कर सकता

वैदिक कविताओं में हम जो कुछ देखते हैं वह सिर्फ कुछ ही हिमाच्छादित चोटियाँ हैं जो बहुत दूर से एक राष्ट्र की पर्वत श्रेणियों का प्रतिनिधित्व करती हैं, जो इतिहास के क्षितिज से पूरी तरह लुप्त हो गया है।

Thus we may infer that the only characteristic difference between modern Christianity and the old heathen faiths is the belief of the former in a personal devil and in hell. "The Aryan nations had no devil," says Max Muller. "Pluto, though of a sombre character, was a very respectable personage; and Loki (the Scandinavian), though a mischievous person, was not a fiend. The German Goddess, Hell, too, like Proserpine, had once seen better days. Thus, when the Germans were indoctrinated with the idea of a real devil, the Semitic Seth, Satan or Diabolus, they treated him in the most good-humored way."
