Leo Buscaglia Relationship Quotations

What love we've given, we'll have forever. What love we fail to give, will be lost for all eternity.

Never idealize others. They will never live up to your expectations.

Don't smother each other. No one can grow in the shade.

A loving relationship is one in which the loved one is free to be himself -- to laugh with me, but never at me; to cry with me, but never because of me; to love life, to love himself, to love being loved. Such a relationship is based upon freedom and can never grow in a jealous heart

Never idealize others. They will never live up to your expectations. Don't over-analyze your relationships. Stop playing games. A growing relationship can only be nurtured by genuineness.

We are not evil, inadequate or incompetent when our relationships fail.

...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.

Don't over analyze your relationships.

We treat our encounters with them with carefree casualness. We are certain that our relationships will naturally take care of themselves.

A growing relationship can only be nurtured by genuineness.
