Trust

Famous quotes containing the word trust:

    Parents do not give up their children to strangers lightly. They wait in uncertain anticipation for an expression of awareness and interest in their children that is as genuine as their own. They are subject to ambivalent feelings of trust and competitiveness toward a teacher their child loves and to feelings of resentment and anger when their child suffers at her hands. They place high hopes in their children and struggle with themselves to cope with their children’s failures.
    Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

    Never trust the artist. Trust the tale. The proper function of the critic is to save the tale from the artist who created it.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Never trust the judgment of an enthusiastic man; never trust the promises of a lazy one.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
