Albert Schweitzer (1875–1965) was a remarkable individual from Alsace – a theologian, musician, philosopher, and perhaps most impactfully, a physician and humanitarian. His life was guided by his philosophy of "Reverence for Life," which he put into practice by founding a hospital in Africa, earning him the Nobel Peace Prize. His words often reflect this deep respect for life and dedication to service.
