Leo Buscaglia

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.

Ninety per-cent of what we worry about never happens, yet we worry and worry. What a horrible way to go through life! What a horrible thing to do to your colon!

Love is always bestowed as a gift - freely, willingly and without expectation. We don't love to be loved; we love to love.

Education should be the process of helping everyone to discover his uniqueness." -Leo Buscaglia (1924-1998)

Definition of a relationship - an enduring, mutually-agreed upon connection or union, which fulfills certain needs of the individuals involved and the society in which they live.

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!

Love always creates, it never destroys. In this lie's man's only promise.

Change is the end result of all true learning.

The easiest thing to be in the world is you. The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don't let them put you in that position.

Death is a challenge. It tells us not to waste time... It tells us to tell each other right now that we love each other.

Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.

Your talent is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.

Love is not a thing, it is not lost when given. You can offer your love completely to hundreds of people and still retain the same love you had originally.

There are two big forces at work, external and internal. We have very little control over external forces such as tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, disasters, illness and pain. What really matters is the internal force. How do I respond to those disasters? Over that I have complete control.

It's not enough to have lived. We should be determined to live for something.

Time has no meaning in itself unless we choose to give it significance

Ancient Egyptians believed that upon death they would be asked two questions and their answers would determine whether they could continue their journey in the afterlife. The first question was, 'Did you bring joy?' The second was, 'Did you find joy?

Find the person who will love you because of your differences and not in spite of them and you have found a lover for life.

I exist, I am, I am here, I am becoming, I make my own life and no one else makes it for me. I must face my own shortcomings, mistakes, transgressions. No one can suffer my non-being as I do, but tomorrow is another day, and I must decide to leave my bed and live again. And if I fail, I don't have the comfort of blaming you or life or God.

Life is a paradise for those who love many things with a passion.

You are the only you ... You are the best you. You will always be the second best anyone else.
