Would You Say That Any One Sacred

Max Muller

Would you say that any one sacred book is superior to all others in the world? ... i say the new testament, after that, i should place the koran, which in its moral teachings, is hardly more than a later edition of the new testament. then would follow according to my opinion the old testament, the southern buddhist tripitaka, the tao-te-king of laotze, the kings of confucius, the veda and the avesta.

If a man would follow, today, the teachings of the old testament, he would be a criminal. if he would follow strictly the teachings of the new, he would be insane.

I shall no longer be instructed by the yoga veda or the aharva veda, or the ascetics, or any other doctrine whatsoever. i shall learn from myself, be a pupil of myself; i shall get to know myself, the mystery of siddhartha." he looked around as if he were seeing the world for the first time.

Jimmy carter, of course, was beloved. peanut farmer. came out of nowhere, governor of georgia. normally democrats hate southern accents, 'cause southern accents equals deliverance, equals hayseed, equals idiot. but if it's one of them... but you had to look the other way with jimmy carter and then here came bill clinton later. so depending on where the southern accent's from, they'll make an exception and not be prejudicial about it. but for the most part, a southern accent may as well be a slave owner as far as democrats are concerned; they want no part of it.

This was an age before e-books. we all knew that the only way you can allow a book to survive in print in the long term is in paperback. the hardback has a certain life, and then it stops having that. it stops selling, and if you want the book to just stay around there has to be a paperback edition. so if there were not a paperback edition the book would eventually disappear from the shelves, and we would have lost the battle.

The new testament rests itself for credulity and testimony on what are called prophecies in the old testament, of the person called jesus christ; and if there are no such things as prophecies of any such person in the old testament, the new testament.

Organize your reality according to your strength; organize your reality according to your playfulness; according to your dreams; according to your joy; according to your hopes - and then you can help those who organize their reality according to their fears.
