A promise kept is trust coming to life. A promise kept is more powerful than a good intention, a thought or any material comfort. A promise kept tells the other person they are valued, respected and loved.

Hope knows no fear. Hope dares to blossom even inside the abysmal abyss. Hope secretly feeds and strengthens promise.

Sri Chinmoy

Logically, harmony must come from the heart... Harmony very much based on trust. As soon as use force, creates fear. Fear and trust cannot go together.

Dalai Lama

Undertake not what you cannot perform, but be careful to keep your promise.

George Washington

We must not promise what we ought not, lest we be called on to perform what we cannot.

Abraham Lincoln

The psalm (Psalm 56) hints at the recognition that fear and trust may coexist. The life of faith is then one in which we live in trust even if we also know fear. Perhaps, indeed, trust only exists in the presence of fear.

John Goldingay

Garrett Hardin

What is your assurance of salvation? The promise of God's Word. If God says it, that settles it, because God cannot lie. You can trust the promise of God's Word.

Rick Warren

I fear no secret of a person I trust, and he has no need to fear mine. It is part of being friends.

Peter Drucker

The fear of life, the fear of burdens and of duties, of annoyances and of catastrophes! The fear of life, which makes us, through dread of its sufferings, refuse its joys. Ah! I tell you, this cowardliness enrages me; I cannot forgive it. We must live - live a complete life - live all our life.

Emile Zola

Mackenzie, you cannot produce trust, just as you cannot 'do' humility. It either is or is not. Trust is the fruit of a relationship in which you know you are loved. Because you do not know that I love you, you cannot trust me.

William P. Young

When you speak, speak the truth; perform when you promise; discharge your trust... Withhold your hands from striking, and from taking that which is unlawful and bad.

Abdul Kalam

There cannot be love without trust and there cannot be trust unless we take the responsibility to act in a way that people can trust us.

Radhanath Swami

Ruthless trust ultimately comes down to this: faith in the person of Jesus and hope in his promise.

Brennan Manning

She dares me to pour myself out like a living waterfall. She dares me to enter the soul that is more than my own; she extinguishes fear in mere seconds. She lets light come through.

Virginia Woolf
