"As everyone knows, there are only two automobiles within seventy-five
miles of the hospital. This afternoon,
the inevitable happened; the cars collided.
We have treated the drivers for their superficial wounds. Anyone who has reverence for machines may treat
the cars.” -Albert Schweitzer,
announcing to his coworkers the latest news.
Albert Schweitzer worked hard in the jungle to combat the
many diseases that afflicted the natives.
Work was hard. Yet, through it
all he maintained a sense of humor which lifted the spirits of all and helped
them to continue to function.
Moral? Learn to laugh.
It makes the bad things manageable.
