Leo Buscaglia
Image
Love revels in and grows in the moment and the joy of the moment.
Leo Buscaglia

Leo Buscaglia
Image
The heart is the place where we live our passions. It is frail and easily broken, but wonderfully resilient. There is no point in trying to deceive the heart. It depends upon our honesty for its survival.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
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.

Tact is rubbing out another's mistake instead of rubbing it in.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Love creates an us without destroying the me.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
We treat our encounters with them with carefree casualness. We are certain that our relationships will naturally take care of themselves.

Image
The only people who become wealthy by being concerned with the future are insurance companies.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Love requires that we overcome the traditional and self-defeating fears that place distance between ourselves and others.
