What the activity of this disposition of ours means in the evolution of the world, we do not know. Nor can we regulate this activity from outside we must leave entirely to each individual its shaping and its extension. From every point of view, then, world- and life-affirmation and ethics are non-rational, and we must have the courage to admit it.

Albert Schweitzer
I still remain convinced that truth, love, peaceableness, meekness, and kindness are the violence which can master all other violence. The world will be theirs as soon as ever a sufficient number of people with purity of heart, with strength, and with perseverance think and live out the thoughts of love and truth, of meekness and peaceableness.
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
Let your life be your argument.
Albert Schweitzer
The gratitude ascending from man to God is the supreme transaction between earth and heaven.

Your soul suffers if you live superficially.
