Albert Schweitzer on the Individual

"It is good to be reminded now and then that even in a world struggling with the momentous issue of war and peace the individual has problems."

This is a total throwaway line given by Schweitzer in a conversation with a journalist in the book Albert Schweitzer's Mission. He had been speaking about the arms race during the Cold War when news was brought to him of an emergency pregnancy at his mission in Africa.
