More quotes by Albert Schweitzer
I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve.
Albert Schweitzer
If you are called upon to play a church service, it is a greater honor than if you were to play a concert on the finest organ in the world... Thank God each time when you are privileged to sit before the organ console and assist in the worship of the Almighty.
Albert Schweitzer
The deeper we look into nature, the more we recognize that it is full of life, and the more profoundly we know that all life is a secret and that we are united with all life that is in nature.
Albert Schweitzer
Within every patient there resides a doctor, and we as physicians are at our best when we we put our patients in touch with the doctor inside themselves.
Albert Schweitzer
For animals that are overworked, underfed, and cruelly treated for all wistful creatures in captivity that beat their wings against bars for any that are hunted or lost or deserted or frightened or hungry for all that must be put to death...and for those who deal with them we ask a heart of compassion and gentle hands and kindly words.
Albert Schweitzer
Thought is the strongest thing we have.
Albert Schweitzer
God much are the truly wealthy. So our inner happiness depends not on what we experience but on the degree of our gratitude to God, Gratitude — the Secret of Life.
Albert Schweitzer
Jesus means something to our world because a mighty spiritual force streams forth from him and flows through our being also. This fact can neither be shaken nor confirmed by any historical discovery. It is the solid foundation of Christianity.
Albert Schweitzer
It is not enough to merely exist. It's not enough to say, 'I'm earning enough to live and support my family. I do my work well. I'm a good parent.' That's all very well. But you must do something more.
Albert Schweitzer
I am life which wants to live admidst of lives that want to live.
Albert Schweitzer
No man need fear death, he need fear only that he may die without having known his greatest power: the power of his free will to give his life for others
Albert Schweitzer
Example is leadership.
Albert Schweitzer
Reverence for life affords me my fundamental principle of morality.
Albert Schweitzer
Compassion, in which all ethics must take root, can only attain its full breadth and depth if it embraces all living creatures and does not limit itself to mankind.
Albert Schweitzer
Search and see if there is not some place where you may invest your humanity.
Albert Schweitzer
Sincerity is the foundation of the spiritual life.
Albert Schweitzer
Man is a clever animal who behaves like an imbecile.
Albert Schweitzer
The only ones who will find real happiness are those who find a way to serve
Albert Schweitzer
Set a great example. Someone may imitate it.
Albert Schweitzer
Anyone who proposes to do good must not expect people to roll stones out of his way, but must accept his lot calmly if they even roll a few more on it. A strength which becomes clearer and stronger through experiences of such obstacles is the only strength that can conquer them. Resistance is only a waste of strength.
Albert Schweitzer
