More quotes by Albert Schweitzer
Any profound view of the world is mysticism. It has, of course, to deal with life and the world, both of which are nonrational entities.
Albert Schweitzer
Wherever you turn, you can find someone who needs you. Even if it is a little thing, do something for which there is no pay but the privilege of doing it. Remember, you don't live in a world all of your own
Albert Schweitzer
It's not enough merely to exist. Every man has to seek in his own way to make his own self more noble and to relize his own true worth.
Albert Schweitzer
To work for the common good is the greatest creed.
Albert Schweitzer
An idea is, in the end, always stronger than circumstances.
Albert Schweitzer
Just as the wave cannot exist for itself, but is ever a part of the heaving surface of the ocean, so must I never live my life for itself, but always in the experience which is going on around me.
Albert Schweitzer
All the kindness which a man puts out into the world works on the heart and thoughts of mankind.
Albert Schweitzer
Love ... is a living reality.
Albert Schweitzer
Eventually all things fall into place. Until then, laugh at the confusion, live for the moments, and know EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON.
Albert Schweitzer
A man who possesses a veneration of life will not simply say his prayers. He will throw himself into the battle to preserve life, if for no other reason than that he himself is an extension of life around him.
Albert Schweitzer
Truth has no special time of its own. Its hour is now - always.
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
The great secret of success is to go through life as a person who never gets used up. That is possible for those who never argue and strive with people and facts, but in all experience retires upon themselves, and look for the ultimate cause of things in themselves.
Albert Schweitzer
Wherever a man turns he can find someone who needs him.
Albert Schweitzer
Thought is the strongest thing we have. Work done by true and profound thought - that is a real force.
Albert Schweitzer
Constant Kindness can accomplish much.
Albert Schweitzer
Just as white light consists of colored rays, so reverence for life contains all the components of ethics: love, kindliness, sympathy, empathy, peacefulness and power to forgive.
Albert Schweitzer
I see in him (Dr. Max Gerson) one of the most eminent medical geniuses in the history of medicine...he was greatly impeded by adverse political conditions.
Albert Schweitzer
Example is not the main thing in influencing others. It is the only thing.
Albert Schweitzer
Reverence for life affords me my fundamental principle of morality.
Albert Schweitzer
