Publilius Syrus (~100 BC), Maxims You can question somebody's views and their judgment without questioning their motives or patriotism. President Barack Obama, University of Michigan Commencement, 2010 The only way to make a man trustworthy is to trust him. Henry Stimson (1867 - 1950) Trust men and they will be true to you; treat them greatly, and they will show themselves great. Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882), Essays, First Series: Prudence, 1841 It is better to suffer wrong than to do it, and happier to be sometimes cheated than not to trust. Samuel Johnson (1709 - 1784) When I'm trusting and being myself... everything in my life reflects this by falling into place easily, often miraculously.
