Trust : (304) " Promise keeping is a powerful means of grace in a time when people hardly depend on each other to remember and live by their word. " - Lewis B. Smedes " As much as I dislike Trump, I have to admit that his campaign took off because he seemed real and unscripted to a lot of voters. He wasn’t rehearsed, senatorial, or buttoned up. That resonated with people who are distrustful of today’s politicians. " - Ana Kasparian " The only way to move forward is to be able to trust whomever you’re with 100 percent. " - Melissa McBride " You can make the assumption that most human drivers are not out to kill pedestrians. Well, maybe in some parts of Boston they are. But with a person at the wheel who you can see, you behave accordingly. With the robotic car, how do you know what assumption to make? " - Rodney Brooks " If bloggers are to improve our public discourse – helping busy and usually uninformed people make sense of the world – it is necessary to use some sort of standard with which to judge their reliability. Perhaps the answer (strictly advisory) is a body of their peers. Perhaps not. " - Eric Alterman " When people see political ads, they think someone’s lying to them. " - Mark McKinnon " You have to be smart and stay around the people that care about you and have your best interest at heart. " - Mark Ingram II " The trust of the mass population can no longer be taken for granted. " - Richard Edelman " Where do we invest our trust now? In politicians? Most people would say not. In banks, in religion, in a sense of nationhood? In each other? Even that has been complicated. It feels like there’s a total collapse of trust, but without trust, it’s impossible to have any sense of who one is. " - Mike Bartlett " And I’m afraid, in this day and age, trust, which I count so, you know, I love loyalty. I love trust. " - Elton John
