quotations about trust

Hath Fate a keener thrust,
Than when his dart reveals that one we love
We cannot trust?

"Love's Petition"
Trust, initially, is an emotional act. We must be vulnerable and trust that someone will accept us and learn to love us. However, once the trust that is built is destroyed, it is based more on a logical and intuitional act. Trust will not blind us from the facts. Love, on the other hand, is blind.

Only trust thyself and another shall not betray thee.
WILLIAM PENN
Some Fruits of Solitude
Confiding Trust, fair flow'r of youthful minds!
Puts forth its simple blossoms all too soon,
Caught by the first alluring beams of spring;
And, dazzled by their bright and sunny glare,
Clings to the tendril promises of words,
Not deeming they are vain, and false as fair;
Till disappointment's nipping frost appears,
And withers all its impulses of life!
C. B. LANGSTON
