Publisher's Synopsis
Max Müller was one of the most popular, most respected, and most influential thinkers on spirituality of the 19th century, and in this 1905 work, published after his death, his wife collects his wisest, most insightful, most affecting thoughts on the art of living, what constitutes beauty, the joy of children, why death should not be feared, the connections between doubt and faith, the nature of love and the soul, and much more. Gathered not only from his published writings but from private letters and unfinished books, these are intimate reflections on life from a philosopher considered by many to be one of the most profound. German author FRIEDRICH MAX MULLER (1823-1900) combined the studies of language, culture, and religion to create the discipline of comparative mythology. Among his many works are The Sacred Books of the East, India: What Can It Teach Us?, and Wisdom of the Buddha: The Unabridged Dhammapada.
