A man is truly ethical only when he obeys the compulsion to help all life which he is able to assist, and shrinks from injuring anything that lives. -Albert Schweitzer

He was just a European in an uncivilised Country...no more!..he was no Captain Cook or David Livingstone, just a normal average Doctor who was aware that he could achieve importance amonst ignorant people!

[DianeDi]

@rjun67 No doubt he had a lot more to offer to those in need (no matter what country or continent) than you and I combined...

Can you not recognize the benefits offered by someone that has dedicated their entire life to helping others, human and animals equally - just because it's the right thing to do????

Perhaps you should watch past Part 1 .....

You must have been raised a spoiled brat - and maybe I should be talking to your parents!

while most are going to spend today complaining about Obama winning the Nobel, I doubt half know any of the great people like Schweitzer who have won the award years before.

A very humble, selfless one-in-a- million kind of man. Always remembered.

"The African is like my brother, but my junior brother."

-Albert Schweitzer.

There is a beautiful and constant, consistent truth in the words this man speaks. It compares with all the great compassionate words, thoughts, concepts of great human beings through out history. Always look for consistent concepts, ideas from all cultures, be it in metaphor or even exact examples to give you a clear path in your quest for truth, knowledge, wisdom.

This has become my stable datum!

[albertshx]

Dr. Schweizer is very humble and hard working, and more importantly he devoted all his life helping others as well as other living things. His Jesus-like love and reverence for life last for ever.
