"It seemed incredible to me, that physical..." - Quote by Albert Schweitzer

“The deeper we look into nature, the more we recognize that it is full of life, and the more profoundly we know that all life is a secret and that we are united with all life that is in nature.”

“Ethics, too, are nothing but reverence for life. This is what gives me the fundamental principle of morality, namely, that good consists in maintaining, promoting, and enhancing life, and that destroying, injuring, and limiting life are evil.”

“Most men are scantily nourished on a modicum of happiness and a number of empty thoughts which life lays on their plates. They are kept in the road of life through stern necessity by elemental duties which they cannot avoid.”

“A great mind is a good sailor, as a great heart is.”

“It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.”

“Why, courage then! what cannot be avoided'Twere childish weakness to lament or fear.”

“A man without an address is a vagabond; a man with two addresses is a libertine.”

“The chief thing is to love others like yourself, that's the chief thing, and that's everything; nothing else is wanted - you will find out at once how to arrange it all.”

“There is no outward sign of true courtesy that does not rest on a deep moral foundation.”
