More quotes by Albert Schweitzer

Albert Schweitzer

Albert Schweitzer
It is not always granted to the sower to see the harvest.
Albert Schweitzer
That's my private ant. You're liable to break its legs.
Albert Schweitzer
For those who sincerely seek the truth should not fear the outcome.
Albert Schweitzer
The harvested fields bathed in the autumn mist speak of God and his goodness far more vividly than any human lips.
Albert Schweitzer
The doctor of the future will be oneself.
Albert Schweitzer
We need a boundless ethic, one which will include the animals, too. Until we extend the circle of his compassions to all living things, we will not find peace.
Albert Schweitzer
