More quotes by Leo Buscaglia
I still get wildly enthusiastic about little things... I play with leaves. I skip down the street and run against the wind.
Leo Buscaglia
Learn to bend. It's better than breaking.
Leo Buscaglia
There is only the moment. The now. Only what you are experiencing at this second is real.
Leo Buscaglia
A loving relationship is a wanting to celebrate, communicate, and know another's heart and soul.
Leo Buscaglia
What we call the secret of happiness is no more a secret than our willingness to choose life.
Leo Buscaglia
A growing relationship can only be nurtured by genuineness.
Leo Buscaglia
If you don't like the scene you're in, if you're unhappy, if you're lonely, if you don't feel that things are happening, change your scene. Paint a new backdrop.
Leo Buscaglia
A total immersion in life offers the best classroom for learning to love.
Leo Buscaglia
Only when we give joyfully, without hesitation or thought of gain, can we truly know what love means.
Leo Buscaglia
Only the weak are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.
Leo Buscaglia
A wife says to her husband (or vice versa), Do you love me?Of course, he replies. I've been married to you for twenty years, haven't I?How satisfied would we be if we presented someone with a vintage wine and, upon asking his opinion of it, he replied, I'm drinking it, aren't I?Love still needs expression between those who share it
Leo Buscaglia
Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.
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
He must understand that if he is the world's finest plum and someone he loves does not like plums, he has the choice of becoming a banana. But he must be warned that if he chooses to become a banana, he will be a second rate banana. But he can always be the best plum.
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
Because you are human, you do have magic. Get in touch with it. When you feel the insanity rising, don't push it down. Let it come out. Just once-and then let me know what happens!
Leo Buscaglia
Love is not some complex, mystical abstraction. It is something accessible and human that we learn through our everyday experience, as often at times of failure as in moments of ecstasy.
Leo Buscaglia
Love is always changing and unless we stay aware and change with it, it eludes us.
Leo Buscaglia
You have the choice. You can choose joy over despair, happiness over tears, action over apathy, growth over stagnation.
Leo Buscaglia
The most unfortunate thing that happens to a person who fears failure is that he limits himself by becoming afraid to try anything new.
