Constant Kindness can accomplish much.

The purpose of human life is to serve, and to show compassion and the will to help others.

All work that is worth anything is done in faith.

In case my life should end with the cannibals, I hope they will write on my tombstone, 'We have eaten Dr. Schweitzer. He was good to the end.'

Hear our humble prayer, O God. Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to the animals.

The ethic of Reverence for Life prompts us to keep each other alert to what troubles us and to speak and act dauntlessly together in discharging the responsibility that we feel. It keeps us watching together for opportunities to bring some sort of help to animals in recompense for the great misery that men inflict upon them, and thus for a moment we escape from the incomprehensible horror of existence.
