A religion so cheerless, a philosophy so sorrowful, could never have succeeded with the masses of mankind if presented only as a system of metaphysics. Buddhism owed its success to its catholic spirit and its beautiful morality.

Eine so freudlose Religion, eine so traurige Philosophie hätte den Massen der Menschheit niemals gelingen können, wenn sie nur als Metaphysik dargestellt würde. Der Buddhismus verdankte seinen Erfolg seinem katholischen Geist und seiner schönen Moral.
