"If you truly desire happiness, seek and..." - Quote by Albert Schweitzer

“It seemed incredible to me, that physical courage should be so commonplace and revered, while moral courage . . . is so rare and despised.”

“To the man who is truly ethical all life is sacred, including that which from the human point of view seems lower in the scale. He makes distinctions only as each case comes before him, and under the pressure of necessity, as, for example, when it falls to him to decide which of two lives he must sacrifice in order to preserve the other. But all through this series of decisions he is conscious of acting on subjective grounds and arbitrarily, and knows that he bears the responsibility for the life which is sacrificed.”

“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.”

“All the fame and fortune, glory and prestige, can't make me happy if it goes against what I believe.”

“When you are happy, be thankful and your happiness is greatly multiplied. When you are feeling down, be thankful and youll soon be feeling much better.”

“As a kid I had a dream - I wanted to own my own bicycle. When I got the bike I must have been the happiest boy in Liverpool, maybe the world. I lived for that bike. Most kids left their bike in the backyard at night. Not me. I insisted on taking mine indoors and the first night I even kept it in my bed.”

“We become forgetful of the ego when we think of the body as dedicated to the service of others - the body with which most complacently we identify the ego.”

“The important point is to not just follow your passion but something larger than yourself.”

“Power properly understood is nothing but the ability to achieve purpose. It is the strength required to bring about social, political and economic change.”
