Don't smother each other. No one can grow in the shade.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
The hardest battle you're ever going to fight is the battle to be just you.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
He who remains calm while those around him panic probably doesn't know what's going on.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
We are no longer puppets being manipulated by outside powerful forces: we become the powerful force ourselves.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
What love we've given, we'll have forever.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Strong emotions are present in all people. Without feeling, we would not be human. It's unnatural for man to hide what he's feeling, though if taught to do so, he can learn. Love teaches a man to show what he is feeling. Love never presupposes that it can be discerned or felt without expression.

Tact is rubbing out another's mistake instead of rubbing it in.
Leo Buscaglia

It is paradoxical that many educators and parents still differentiate between a time for learning and a time for play without seeing the vital connection between them.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Love is life. And if you miss love, you miss life.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Like any other living, growing thing, love requires effort to keep it healthy.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
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
Image
Time has no meaning in itself unless we choose to give it significance
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Love is not some complex, mystical abstraction. It is something accessible and human that we learn through our everyday experience, as often at times of failure as in moments of ecstasy.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
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
Image
If one wishes to know love, one must live love, in action.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
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

We created time, and now we have become the slave of time.
Leo Buscaglia

Life lived for tomorrow will always be just a day away from being realized.
