More quotes by 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
The life and love we create is the life and love we live.
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
What love we've given, we'll have forever.
Leo Buscaglia
We treat our encounters with them with carefree casualness. We are certain that our relationships will naturally take care of themselves.
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
Joy is always an integral part of loving. There is joy in every act of life, no matter how menial or repetitive. To work in love is to work in joy. To live in love is to live in joy... Why not choose joy?... Why not live in joy?
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
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
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
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
A life lived in love will never be dull.
Leo Buscaglia
If one wishes to know love, one must live love, in action.
Leo Buscaglia
What we call the secret of happiness is no more a secret than our willingness to choose life.
Leo Buscaglia
Learn to bend. It's better than breaking.
Leo Buscaglia
Love creates an us without destroying the me.
Leo Buscaglia
We need others. We need others to love and we need to be loved by them.
Leo Buscaglia
We are so ruled by what people tell us we must be that we have forgotten who we are.
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
Those who think they know it all have no way of finding out they don't.
