You’ve got to be real. Don’t be a phony.

“You’ve got to be real. Don’t be a phony. Find ‘you,’ who you are ... Say, ‘Here I am. Take me for what I am with all my frailties, all my stupidity, and so on. And if you can’t, leave me alone.’”

~ Leo Buscaglia in the book, Living, Loving, & Learning ^(#ad)
