More quotes by Leo Buscaglia
He who remains calm while those around him panic probably doesn't know what's going on.
Leo Buscaglia
Love is always open arms. If you close your arms about love you will find that you are left holding only yourself.
Leo Buscaglia
That's love. That's all it means. It means sharing joy with people.
Leo Buscaglia
The only people who become wealthy by being concerned with the future are insurance companies.
Leo Buscaglia
Love is trusting, accepting, and believing, without guarantee. Love is patient and waits, but it's an active waiting, not a passive one. For it is continually offering itself in a mutual revealing, a mutual sharing. Love is spontaneous and craves expression through joy, through beauty, through truth, even through tears.
Leo Buscaglia
To the extent to which you know yourself, and we are all more alike than different, you can know others. When you love yourself, you will love others. And to the depth and extent to which you can love yourself, only to that depth and extent will you be able to love others.
Leo Buscaglia
We will only begin to forgive when we can look upon the wrongdoers as ourselves, neither better nor worse. We need to remember that we coexist as mortals in the world, together, the wronged and the wrongdoer, and that, in our common humanity, the situation could readily be reversed.
Leo Buscaglia
To be is to do, says the existentialist. One only becomes real (human) at the point of action.
Leo Buscaglia
Why do some people always see beautiful skies and grass and lovely flowers and incredible human beings, while others are hard-pressed to find anything or any place that is beautiful?
Leo Buscaglia
Time has no meaning in itself unless we choose to give it significance
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
This loving person is a person who abhors waste - waste of time, waste of human potential. How much time we waste. As if we were going to live forever.
Leo Buscaglia
Each man lives love in his limited fashion and does not seem to relate the resultant confusion and loneliness to his lack of knowledge about love.
Leo Buscaglia
Each of our acts makes a statement as to our purpose.
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
Tact is rubbing out another's mistake instead of rubbing it in.
Leo Buscaglia
In the end you have only you.
Leo Buscaglia
Happiness and love are just a choice away.
Leo Buscaglia
A life without passion is not living, it's merely existing
Leo Buscaglia
Education should be the process of helping everyone to discover his uniqueness, to teach him how to develop that uniqueness, and then to show him how to share it because that’s the only reason for having anything.
Leo Buscaglia
