More quotes by Albert Schweitzer
If you truly desire happiness, seek and learn how to serve.
Albert Schweitzer

Albert Schweitzer
Late on the third day, at the very moment when, at sunset, ..., there flashed upon my mind, unforeseen and unsought, the phrase “Ehrfurcht vor dem Leben” (“reverence for life”).
Albert Schweitzer
Good is that which promotes life, evil is that which destroys life
Albert Schweitzer

Albert Schweitzer
Constant Kindness can accomplish much.
Albert Schweitzer

Albert Schweitzer

Albert Schweitzer
Day by day we should weigh what we have granted to the spirit of the world against what we have denied to the spirit of Jesus, in thought and especially in deed.
Albert Schweitzer
A man is truly ethical only when he obeys the compulsion to help all life which he is able to assist, and shrinks from injuring anything that lives.
Albert Schweitzer
A good example has twice the value of good advice
Albert Schweitzer
The city of truth cannot be built on the swampy ground of skepticism.
Albert Schweitzer
The quiet conscience is an invention of the devil.
Albert Schweitzer
Love is the only thing that increases twofold every time it is shared.
Albert Schweitzer
