"Constant kindness can accomplish much.
As the sun makes ice melt,
kindness causes misunderstanding,
mistrust, and hostility to evaporate."
-Albert Schweitzer

"Just as the wave
cannot exist for itself,
but is ever a part of the
heaving surface of the ocean,
so must I never live
my life for itself,
but always in the experience
which is going on around me."
-Albert Schweitzer

"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."
-Albert Schweitzer

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

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

"One who gains strength
by overcoming obstacles
possesses the only strength
which can overcome adversity."
-Albert Schweitzer

"In everyone's life, at some time,
our inner fire goes out.
It is then burst into flame by
an encounter with another human being.
We should all be thankful for those
people who rekindle the inner spirit."
-Albert Schweitzer
