Leo Buscaglia

Leo Buscaglia
To love others you must love yourself...You can only give to others what you have yourself.
Leo Buscaglia
It doesn't matter who you have hurt, if you've learned not to hurt again. It doesn't matter what mistakes you've made as long as you don't make them again. As long as you learn, as long as you're willing to take your life in your hands, and kiss it and go from there. Then there is growth. There there is life!
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
You have the choice. You can choose joy over despair, happiness over tears, action over apathy, growth over stagnation.
Leo Buscaglia
Life lived for tomorrow will always be just a day away from being realized.
Leo Buscaglia
You have choice. You can select joy over despair. You can select happiness over tears. You can select action over apathy. You can select growth over stagnation. You can select you. And you can select life. And it's time that people tell you you're not at the mercy of forces greater than yourself. You are, indeed, the greatest force for you.
Leo Buscaglia
Like any other living, growing thing, love requires effort to keep it healthy.
Leo Buscaglia
In a crazy world, it's only your insanity that will keep you sane
