More quotes by Albert Schweitzer
The stronger the reverence for natural life, the stronger grows also that for spiritual life.
Albert Schweitzer
The true worth of a man is not to be found in man himself, but in the colours and textures that come alive in others.
Albert Schweitzer
It is a man's sympathy with all creatures that first makes him truly a man.
Albert Schweitzer
Not less strong than the will to truth must be the will to sincerity. Only an age, which can show the courage of sincerity, can possess truth, which works as a spiritual force within it.
Albert Schweitzer
Serious illness doesn't bother me for long because I am too inhospitable a host.
Albert Schweitzer
An idea is, in the end, always stronger than circumstances.
Albert Schweitzer

Albert Schweitzer
A man is ethical only when life, as such, is sacred to him, that of plants and animals as that of his fellow men, and when he devotes himself helpfully to all life that is in need of help.
Albert Schweitzer
Faith which refuses to face indisputable facts is but little faith. Truth is always gain, however hard it is to accommodate ourselves to it. To linger in any kind of untruth proves to be a departure from the straight way of faith.
Albert Schweitzer
The result of the voyage does not depend on the speed of the ship, but on whether or not it keeps a true course.
Albert Schweitzer
Renunciation of thinking is a declaration of spiritual bankruptcy.
Albert Schweitzer
Hear our humble prayer, O God. Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to the animals.
Albert Schweitzer
Truth has not special time of its own. Its hour is now - always and, indeed then most truly, when it seems unsuitable to actual circumstances.
Albert Schweitzer
Aim for service and success will follow!
Albert Schweitzer
Mysticism occurs whenever a human being sees the separation between the natural and the supernatural, between the temporal and the eternal, as overcome.
Albert Schweitzer
At 20 everyone has the face that God gave them, at 40 the face that life gave them, and at 60 the face they earned.
Albert Schweitzer
He who does not reflect his life back to God in gratitude does not know himself.
Albert Schweitzer
