Albert Schweitzer 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, even if they roll a few stones upon it. One who gains strength by overcoming obstacles possesses the only strength which can overcome adversity. Until he extends his circle of compassion to include all living things, man will not himself find peace.
Happiness is nothing more than good health and a bad memory.
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. Reverence for life affords me my fundamental principle of morality. The true worth of a man is not to be found in man himself, but in the colours and textures that come alive in others.
