The soul is a burning desire to breathe in this world of light and never to lose it--to remain children of light.”
― Albert Schweitzer

“By respect for life we become religious in a way that is elementary, profound and alive.

In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.

- Albert Schweitzer”
