Experience seems to convince us that only fools trust, that only fools believe and accept all things. If this is true, then love is most foolish. For if it is not founded on trust, belief and acceptance, it's not love.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
A life without love, no matter how many other things we have, is an empty, meaningless one.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Value yourself. The only people who appreciate a doormat are people with dirty shoes.

Relish love in your old age! Aged love is like aged wine it becomes more satisfying, more refreshing, more valuable, more appreciated and more intoxicating!
Leo Buscaglia

Leo Buscaglia
Image
What love we've given, we'll have forever. What love we fail to give, will be lost for all eternity.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
I still get wildly enthusiastic about little things... I play with leaves. I skip down the street and run against the wind.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Happiness is intrinsic, it's an internal thing. When you build it into yourself, no external circumstances can take it away.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
You have the choice. You can choose joy over despair, happiness over tears, action over apathy, growth over stagnation.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Learn to bend. It's better than breaking.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
Your talent is God's gift to you.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
A life of love is one of continual growth, where the doors and windows of experience are always open to the wonder and magic that life offers. To love is to risk living fully.
Leo Buscaglia
Image
What we call the secret of happiness is no more a secret than our willingness to choose life.
