Albert Schweitzer Quotes


A Franco-German theologian, organist, philosopher, physician, and medical missionary.
Albert Schweitzer (14 January 1875 – 4 September 1965) was a Franco-German (Alsatian) theologian, organist, philosopher, physician, and medical missionary. He was born in Kaysersberg in the province of Alsace-Lorraine, in the German Empire. Schweitzer challenged both the secular view of Jesus as depicted by historical-critical methodology current at his time in certain academic circles, as well as the traditional Christian view, depicting a Jesus Christ who expected and predicted the imminent end of the world. He received the 1952 Nobel Peace Prize for his philosophy of "Reverence for Life", expressed in many ways, but most famously in founding and sustaining the Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Lambaréné, now in Gabon, west central Africa (then French Equatorial Africa). As a music scholar and organist, he studied the music of German composer Johann Sebastian Bach and influenced the Organ reform movement (Orgelbewegung).

Here are some famous quotes by Albert Schweitzer.




A man does not have to be an angel in order to be a saint.

Happiness? That's nothing more than health and a poor memory.

As we acquire more knowledge things do not become more comprehensible but more mysterious.

Thought is the strongest thing we have. Work done by true and profound thought - that is a real force.

A man can do only what he can do. But if he does that each day he can sleep at night and do it again the next day.
