Albert schweitzer

Truth has no special time of its own. Its hour is now - always.

A man can do only what he can do. But if he does that each day he can sleep at night and do it again the next day.

Everything deep is also simple and can be reproduced simply as long as its reference to the whole truth is maintained. But what matters is not what is witty but what is true.

Impart as much as you can of your spiritual being to those who are on the road with you, and accept as something precious what comes back to you from them.

Man must cease attributing his problems to his environment, and learn again to exercise his will - his personal responsibility in the realm of faith and morals.

We cannot possibly let ourselves get frozen into regarding everyone we do not know as an absolute stranger.

Man can hardly even recognize the devils of his own creation.

Ethics is the activity of man directed to secure the inner perfection of his own personality.

The only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve.

I have always held firmly to the thought that each one of us can do a little to bring some portion of misery to an end.
