More quotes by Albert Schweitzer
We ought all to make an effort to act on our first thoughts and let our unspoken gratitude find expression. Then there will be more sunshine in the world, and more power to work for what is good.
Albert Schweitzer
Does my behavior in respect of love affect nothing? That is because there is not enough love in me.
Albert Schweitzer
Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.
Albert Schweitzer
I always think that we live, spiritually, By what others have given us in the significant hours of our life. These significant hours do not announce themselves as coming, but arrive unexpected.
Albert Schweitzer
He who does not reflect his life back to God in gratitude does not know himself.
Albert Schweitzer

Albert Schweitzer
I used to suffer particularly because the poor animals must endure so much pain and want. The sight of an old, limping horse being dragged along by one man while another man struck him with a stick he was being driven to the Colmar slaughterhouse - haunted me for weeks.
Albert Schweitzer
Where possible Paul avoids quoting the teaching of Jesus, in fact even mentioning it. If we had to rely on Paul, we should not know that Jesus taught in parables, had delivered the sermon on the mount, and had taught His disciples the 'Our Father.' Even where they are specially relevant, Paul passes over the words of the Lord.
Albert Schweitzer
If a man loses his reverence for any part of life, he will lose his reverence for all of life.
Albert Schweitzer
Today . . . we know that all living beings who strive to maintain life and who long to be spared pain - all living beings on earth - are our neighbors.
Albert Schweitzer
Grow into your ideals so that life cannot rob you of them.
Albert Schweitzer
The great secret of success is to go through life as a man who never gets used to failing.
Albert Schweitzer
Your soul suffers if you live superficially.
Albert Schweitzer
We cannot abdicate our conscience to an organization, nor to a government. 'Am I my brother's keeper?' Most certainly I am! I cannot escape my responsibility by saying the State will do all that is necessary. It is a tragedy that nowadays so many think and feel otherwise.
Albert Schweitzer
True philosophy must start from the most immediate and comprehensive fact of consciousness: I am life that wants to live, in the midst of life that wants to live.
Albert Schweitzer
To educate yourself for the feeling of gratitude means to take nothing for granted.
Albert Schweitzer
Hear our humble prayer, O God. Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to the animals.
Albert Schweitzer
All art speaks in signs and symbols. No one can explain how it happens that the artist can waken to life in us the existence that he has seen and lives through. No artistic speech is the adequate expression of what it represents its vital force comes from what is unspoken in it.
Albert Schweitzer
