More quotes by 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
In the end you have only you.
Leo Buscaglia
The hardest battle you're ever going to fight is the battle to be just you.
Leo Buscaglia
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
Don't look over people's shoulders. Look in their eyes. Don't talk at your children. Take their faces in your hands and talk to them. Don't make love to a body, make love to a person.
Leo Buscaglia
If one wishes to know love, one must live love, in action.
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
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
Love creates an us without destroying the me.
Leo Buscaglia

Leo Buscaglia

Leo Buscaglia
You can only give away what you have ... If you have love, you can give it. If you don't have it, you don't have it to give.
Leo Buscaglia
If I don't have wisdom, I can teach you only ignorance.
Leo Buscaglia
Ninety per-cent of what we worry about never happens, yet we worry and worry. What a horrible way to go through life! What a horrible thing to do to your colon!
Leo Buscaglia
Catch the beauty of the moment!
Leo Buscaglia
Listening is love in action.
Leo Buscaglia
We created time, and now we have become the slave of time.
Leo Buscaglia
When we cling to pain, we end up punishing ourselves.
Leo Buscaglia
Love is life. And if you miss love, you miss life.
Leo Buscaglia
Like any other living, growing thing, love requires effort to keep it healthy.
