Love is a dynamic interaction, lived every second of our lives, all of our lives.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
What love we've given, we'll have forever. What love we fail to give, will be lost for all eternity.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Nine times out of ten, when you extend your arms to someone, they will step in, because basically they need precisely what you need.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
The easiest thing to be in the world is you. The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don't let them put you in that position.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Things omitted are often more deadly than errors committed.
Leo Buscaglia

Each of our acts makes a statement as to our purpose.
Leo Buscaglia

Leo Buscaglia
Image
We all need to be recognized for what we're doing, for our work. Every once in a while we need someone to come up to us and say, 'You're beautiful. That was well done. That's nice.'
Leo Buscaglia

Leo Buscaglia
Image
Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Love is always open arms. If you close your arms about love you will find that you are left holding only yourself.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Love requires that we overcome the traditional and self-defeating fears that place distance between ourselves and others.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
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
Image
One cannot give what he does not possess. To give love you must possess love. To love others you must love yourself.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Never idealize others. They will never live up to your expectations.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
A growing relationship can only be nurtured by genuineness.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
To that there is an answer.
