Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.
Leo Buscaglia
Catch the beauty of the moment!
Leo Buscaglia
Only when we give joyfully, without hesitation or thought of gain, can we truly know what love means.
Leo Buscaglia
As soon as the love relationship does not lead me to me, as soon as I in a love relationship do not lead another person to himself, this love, even if it seems to be the most secure and ecstatic attachment I have ever experienced, is not true love. For real love is dedicated to continual becoming.
Leo Buscaglia
To love is to risk not being loved in return.
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
Love revels in and grows in the moment and the joy of the moment.
Leo Buscaglia
If I don't have wisdom, I can teach you only ignorance.

Labels are distancing phenomena. They push us away from each other.
Leo Buscaglia
Risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
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
Everybody is teaching Everybody to Love at every moment.
Leo Buscaglia
Every moment spent in unhappiness is a moment of happiness lost.
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
To that there is an answer.
Leo Buscaglia
