There is much coldness among men because we do not dare to be as cordial as we really are.
Albert SchweitzerOne truth stands firm. All that happens in world history rests on something spiritual. If the spiritual is strong, it creates world history. If it is weak, it suffers world history.
Albert SchweitzerAt 20 everyone has the face that God gave them, at 40 the face that life gave them, and at 60 the face they earned.
Albert SchweitzerYou must learn to understand the secret of gratitude. It is more than just so-called virtue. It is revealed to you as a mysterious law of existence. In obedience to it we have to fulfill our destiny.
Albert SchweitzerTo educate yourself for the feeling of gratitude means to take nothing for granted, but to always seek out and value the kindness that stands behind the action. Nothing that is done for you is a matter of course. Everything originates in a will for the good, which is directed at you. Train yourself never to put off the word or action for the expression of gratitude.
