People who cannot trust are themselves not trustworthy, and therefore cannot be entrusted with important things.

About This Quote

Trust is when you do something that makes someone else feel good, and they want to do more of the same. If someone does something that makes you feel bad, and they want to keep doing it, then that person is probably not trustworthy. It’s important to realize that merely keeping something a secret won’t make you trustworthy. That’s like telling a lie and sticking to it, no matter what anyone says.
