Leo Buscaglia quotes about

To live in love is to live in life, and to live in life is to live in love
panic calm remains
He who remains calm while those around him panic probably doesn't know what's going on.

To laugh is to risk appearing a fool, to weep is to risk appearing too sentimental, to reach out for another is to risk involvement, and to expose feelings is to risk exposing one's true self.
mistake thinking long
There is nothing wrong with making mistakes and not having all the answers, so long as we are willing to admit this and strive for personal betterment. Those who think they know it all have no way of finding out that they don't.
suffering positive-change trauma
The only lasting trauma is the one we suffer without positive change.
love lying knowing
Knowing that one is always capable of change, the second step lies in making the decision to change. Change does not occur by merely willing it anymore than behavior changes simply through insight.
pain joy hopeful
Say "yes" to life! "Yes" to wonder, to joy, to despair. "Yes" to pain, "yes" to what you don't understand. Try "yes." Try "always." Try "possible." Try "hopeful." Try "I will." And try "I can."
passion italian giants

There is only the moment. The now. Only what you are experiencing at this second is real.

love mean growing
Every day we are offered new means for learning and growing in love.
love-you able depth
To the extent to which you know yourself, and we are all more alike than different, you can know others. When you love yourself, you will love others. And to the depth and extent to which you can love yourself, only to that depth and extent will you be able to love others.
love mean people
Loving means sharing joy with people.
