Quotes from Leo Buscaglia

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Love is always open arms. If you close your arms about love you will find that you are left holding only yourself.

Don't hold to anger, hurt or pain. They steal your energy and keep you from love.

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.

Don't walk in my head with your dirty feet.

There are scores of people waiting for someone just like us to come along; people who will appreciate our compassion, our encouragement, who will need our unique talents. Someone who will live a happier life merely because we took the time to share what we had to give.

It's not enough to have lived. We should be determined to live for something. May I suggest that it be creating joy for others, sharing what we have for the betterment of personkind, bringing hope to the lost and love to the lonely.

If you don't like the scene you're in, if you're unhappy, if you're lonely, if you don't feel that things are happening, change your scene. Paint a new backdrop.

Our talents are the gift that God gives to us... What we make of our talents is our gift back to God

Only when we give joyfully, without hesitation or thought of gain, can we truly know what love means.

The minute we stop learning, we begin death, the process of dying. We learn from each other with every action we perform. We are teaching goodness or evil every time we step out of the house and into the street.

We all need each other.
