More quotes by Leo Buscaglia
A life lived in love will never be dull.
Leo Buscaglia
The essence of education is not to stuff you with facts but to help you discover your uniqueness, to teach you how to develop it, and then to show you how to give it away.
Leo Buscaglia
You have the choice. You can choose joy over despair, happiness over tears, action over apathy, growth over stagnation.
Leo Buscaglia
Everybody needs a hug. It changes your metabolism.
Leo Buscaglia
Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.
Leo Buscaglia
There are many miracles in the world to be celebrated and, for me, garlic is the most deserving.
Leo Buscaglia
Happiness comes only when we push our brains and hearts to the farthest reaches of which we are capable. The purpose of life is to matter-to count, to stand for something, to have it make so difference that we lived at all.
Leo Buscaglia
We created time, and now we have become the slave of time.
Leo Buscaglia
You can't imagine the joy I feel when I hear that something I've said or done or written has helped others to regain their sense of dignity, to motivate them to develop their unique potential, to encourage them to reach out to others in love.
Leo Buscaglia
Education should be the process of helping everyone to discover his uniqueness. -Leo Buscaglia (1924-1998)
Leo Buscaglia
The only thing of value we can give kids is what we are, not what we have.
Leo Buscaglia
Happiness is intrinsic, it's an internal thing. When you build it into yourself, no external circumstances can take it away.
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
There are two big forces at work, external and internal. We have very little control over external forces such as tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, disasters, illness and pain. What really matters is the internal force. How do I respond to those disasters? Over that I have complete control.
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
What love we've given, we'll have forever.
Leo Buscaglia
We are so ruled by what people tell us we must be that we have forgotten who we are.
Leo Buscaglia
Like any other living, growing thing, love requires effort to keep it healthy.
Leo Buscaglia
Love is not a thing, it is not lost when given. You can offer your love completely to hundreds of people and still retain the same love you had originally.
Leo Buscaglia
Definition of a relationship - an enduring, mutually-agreed upon connection or union, which fulfills certain needs of the individuals involved and the society in which they live.
