More quotes by Leo Buscaglia
Experience seems to convince us that only fools trust, that only fools believe and accept all things. If this is true, then love is most foolish. For if it is not founded on trust, belief and acceptance, it's not love.
Leo Buscaglia
Every day we are offered new means for learning and growing in love.
Leo Buscaglia
Man seldom questions the fact that ugliness and evil are to be found in the world. But he's never as ready to accept that life also offers unlimited beauty and potential for joy as well as endless opportunities for pleasure.
Leo Buscaglia
What we call the secret of happiness is no more a secret than our willingness to choose life.
Leo Buscaglia
Your talent is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.
Leo Buscaglia
What love we've given, we'll have forever.
Leo Buscaglia
It is paradoxical that many educators and parents still differentiate between a time for learning and a time for play without seeing the vital connection between them.
Leo Buscaglia
When we give ourselves in love we become our most vulnerable. We are never safe. We become open to disappointment and hurt.
Leo Buscaglia
I believe that you control your destiny, that you can be what you want to be. You can also stop and say, 'No, I won't do it, I won't behave his way anymore. I'm lonely and I need people around me, maybe I have to change my methods of behaving,' and then you do it.
Leo Buscaglia
Let go. Why do you cling to pain? There is nothing you can do about the wrongs of yesterday. It is not yours to judge. Why hold on to the very thing which keeps you from hope and love?
Leo Buscaglia
Listening is love in action.
Leo Buscaglia
Strong emotions are present in all people. Without feeling, we would not be human. It's unnatural for man to hide what he's feeling, though if taught to do so, he can learn. Love teaches a man to show what he is feeling. Love never presupposes that it can be discerned or felt without expression.
Leo Buscaglia
Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy.
Leo Buscaglia
A life without passion is not living, it's merely existing
Leo Buscaglia
Only the weak are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.
Leo Buscaglia
Your talent is God's gift to you.
Leo Buscaglia
Learn to bend. It's better than breaking.
Leo Buscaglia
I'd like to be remembered for being a good, kind, loving, gentle man who attempted to live wisely, and who cared a lot.
Leo Buscaglia
We need others. We need others to love and we need to be loved by them.
Leo Buscaglia
I exist, I am, I am here, I am becoming, I make my own life and no one else makes it for me. I must face my own shortcomings, mistakes, transgressions. No one can suffer my non-being as I do, but tomorrow is another day, and I must decide to leave my bed and live again. And if I fail, I don't have the comfort of blaming you or life or God.
