Constant kindness can accomplish much. As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.

Това е съдбата на всяка истина - да бъде обект на присмех, когато за пръв път е изказана. Някога се е смятало за смешно да се предположи, че чернокожите са наистина човешки същества и че би трябвало да се третират като такива. Това, което някога е било смешно, сега е неопровержима истина. Днес се смята за преувеличение да се прокламира постоянно уважение към всяка форма на живот като сериозно изискване на рационалната етика. Но идва времето, когато хората ще бъдат удивени, че човешката раса е съществувала толкова дълго преди да осъзнае, че неразумното посягане на живота е несъвместимо с истинския морал. Моралът в своята абсолютна форма обхваща отговорността към всичко живо.
Albert SchweitzerWe must fight against the spirit of unconscious cruelty with which we treat the animals. Animals suffer as much as we do. True humanity does not allow us to impose such sufferings on them. It is our duty to make the whole world recognize it. Until we extend our circle of compassion to all living things, humanity will not find peace.

When I look back upon my early days I am stirred by the thought of the number of people whom I have to thank for what they gave me or for what they were to me. At the same time I am haunted by an oppressive consciousness of the little gratitude I really showed them while I was young. How many of them have said farewell to life without having made clear to them what it meant to me to receive from them so much kindness or so much care! Many a time have I, with a feeling of shame, said quietly to myself over a grave the words which my mouth ought to have spoken to the departed, while he was still in the flesh.
