There is no better proof of a mans being truly good than his desiring to be constantly under the observation of good men. – Francois de La Rochefoucauld
A man is ethical only when life, as such, is sacred to him, that of plants and animals as that of his fellow men, and when he devotes himself helpfully to all life that is in need of help. – Albert Schweitzer
Here take back the stuff that I am, nature, knead it back into the dough of being, make of me a bush, a cloud, whatever you will, even a man, only no longer make me me. – Georg C. Lichtenberg
