More quotes by Albert Schweitzer
I must forgive without noise or fuss.
Albert Schweitzer
Whoever is spared personal pain must feel himself called to help in diminishing the pain of others. We must all carry our share of the misery which lies upon the world.
Albert Schweitzer
Anyone who proposes to do good must not expect people to roll stones out of his way, but must accept his lot calmly if they even roll a few more on it. A strength which becomes clearer and stronger through experiences of such obstacles is the only strength that can conquer them. Resistance is only a waste of strength.
Albert Schweitzer
A thinking man feels compelled to approach all life with the same reverence he has for his own.
Albert Schweitzer
The doctor of the future will be oneself.
Albert Schweitzer
The awareness that we are all human beings together has become lost in war and through politics.
Albert Schweitzer
No man need fear death, he need fear only that he may die without having known his greatest power: the power of his free will to give his life for others
Albert Schweitzer
In the hopes of reaching the moon men fail to see the flowers that blossom at their feet.
Albert Schweitzer
Ideals are thoughts. So long as they exist merely as thoughts, the power in them remains ineffective.
Albert Schweitzer
We cannot possibly let ourselves get frozen into regarding everyone we do not know as an absolute stranger.
Albert Schweitzer
Constant kindness can accomplish much. As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.
Albert Schweitzer
There is no higher religion than human service.
Albert Schweitzer
Train yourself never to put off the word or action for the expression of gratitude.
Albert Schweitzer
I too had thoughts once of being an intellectual, but I found it too difficult.
Albert Schweitzer
When people have light in themselves, it will shine out from them. Then we get to know each other as we walk together in the darkness, without needing to pass our hands over each other's faces, or to intrude into each other's hearts.
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
In modern European thought a tragedy is occurring in that the original bonds uniting the affirmative attitude towards the world with ethics are, by a slow but irresistible process, loosening and finally parting. Out of my life and Thought.
Albert Schweitzer
It is a man's sympathy with all creatures that first makes him truly a man.
Albert Schweitzer
Joy, sorrow, tears, lamentation, laughter -- to all these music gives voice, but in such a way that we are transported from the world of unrest to a world of peace, and see reality in a new way, as if we were sitting by a mountain lake and contemplating hills and woods and clouds in the tranquil and fathomless water.
Albert Schweitzer
We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.
Albert Schweitzer
