More quotes by Leo Buscaglia
It's not enough to have lived. We should be determined to live for something. May I suggest that it be creating joy for others, sharing what we have for the betterment of personkind, bringing hope to the lost and love to the lonely.
Leo Buscaglia
One cannot give what he does not possess. To give love you must possess love. To love others you must love yourself.
Leo Buscaglia
Each man lives love in his limited fashion and does not seem to relate the resultant confusion and loneliness to his lack of knowledge about love.
Leo Buscaglia
A wife says to her husband (or vice versa), Do you love me?Of course, he replies. I've been married to you for twenty years, haven't I?How satisfied would we be if we presented someone with a vintage wine and, upon asking his opinion of it, he replied, I'm drinking it, aren't I?Love still needs expression between those who share it
Leo Buscaglia
Live now. When you are eating, eat. When you are loving, love. when you are talking with someone, talk. When you are looking at a flower, look. Catch the beauty of the moment!
Leo Buscaglia
A loving relationship is one in which the loved one is free to be himself -- to laugh with me, but never at me to cry with me, but never because of me to love life, to love himself, to love being loved. Such a relationship is based upon freedom and can never grow in a jealous heart
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
Because you are human, you do have magic. Get in touch with it. When you feel the insanity rising, don't push it down. Let it come out. Just once-and then let me know what happens!
Leo Buscaglia
I was one of those fortunate individuals who grew up in a large, passionate, demonstrative Italian family where we were taught to love as naturally as we breathed and ate giant bowls of pasta!
Leo Buscaglia
Love is always changing and unless we stay aware and change with it, it eludes us.
Leo Buscaglia
I believe that you control your destiny, that you can be what you want to be. You can also stop and say, 'No, I won't do it, I won't behave his way anymore. I'm lonely and I need people around me, maybe I have to change my methods of behaving,' and then you do it.
Leo Buscaglia
Say yes to life! Yes to wonder, to joy, to despair. Yes to pain, yes to what you don't understand. Try yes. Try always. Try possible. Try hopeful. Try I will. And try I can.
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
...the opposite of love is not hate - it's apathy. It's not giving a damn. If somebody hates me, they must feel something ... or they couldn't possibly hate. Therefore, there's some way in which I can get to them.
Leo Buscaglia
Risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
Leo Buscaglia
Never idealize others. They will never live up to your expectations. Don't over-analyze your relationships. Stop playing games. A growing relationship can only be nurtured by genuineness.
Leo Buscaglia
Life lived for tomorrow will always be just a day away from being realized.
Leo Buscaglia
Your talent is God's gift to you.
Leo Buscaglia
In a crazy world, it's only your insanity that will keep you sane
Leo Buscaglia
People are not here to meet your expectations.
