Most Noble of Mankind

If you desire to see the most bnoble of mankind, look at the king in beggar's clothing; it is he whose sanctity is great among men.

-Abdul Atahiya, A Muslim Poet

Embodiment of Virtues

Buddha was the embodiment of all the virtues he preached. During his successful and eventful ministry of 45 years he translated all his words into action; and in no place did he give tent to any human frailty, or any case passion. The Buddha's moral code is the most perfect which the world has ever known.

-Pro. Max Mullar, German Scholar

The Buddha's Greatness

I cannot myself feel that either in the matter of wisdom or in the matter of virtue christ stands quite as high as some other people known to history - I think i should put Buddha above him in those respects.

-Bertrand Russell, '' Why i am not a Christian"
