Inspiration: Leo Buscaglia

Here are some powerful quotes from Leo Buscaglia.
What I've read of his works, and what I've seen quoted from him, is often highly inspirational. Never mind inspiration, I do believe the man knew what he was talking about, and that the world is in desperate need of his kind of teachings.
What love we've given, we'll have forever. What love we fail to give, will be lost for all eternity.
So true. And what a change from our readily accepted definition of "love" as being something that "does it for me".
Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy.
True, isn't it? Here are some more.
Your talent is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.

Love is life. And if you miss love, you miss life.

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

Only the weak are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.

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.

What I find beautiful about these sayings is that they're so simple, yet so deeply true. Why don't more people talk like this?
