#trust

God has entrusted me with myself. No man is my master, for God has made me free.

The next best is a leader who is loved and praised. Next, one who is feared. The worst is one who is despised.

If you don't trust the people, you make them untrustworthy.

To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don't grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float.

When you try to stay on the surface of the water, you sink; but when you try to sink, you float.

Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.

Relax into the current. The river knows the way to the sea.

Let go, and you find that the universe catches you every single time.

Be slow to fall into friendship, but when you are in, continue firm and constant.

Regard your good name as the richest jewel you can possibly be possessed of; for credit is like fire; when once you have kindled it you may easily preserve it, but if you once extinguish it, you will find it an arduous task to rekindle it again.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow-ripening fruit.

The antidote for fifty enemies is one true friend.

True friendship requires time and familiarity; as the proverb says, people cannot know each other until they have eaten the proverbial salt together.

Sincerity is an openness of heart; we find it in very few people; what we usually see is only an artful dissimulation to win the confidence of others.

Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.

Slowly, slowly, O mind, everything in its own time happens. The gardener may water with a hundred pots, but fruit arrives only in season.

Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string.

Faith is not something to grasp, it is a state to grow into.

True friendship is a communion of pure souls.

Live with the unknown as your sacred home.

True peace requires no weapons and no walls.

Surrender is giving oneself up to the original cause of one's being.

Live without anxiety, knowing that pure Awareness sustains all.

Trust the silent intelligence that guides the universe.

The divine grace is ever active; we have only to open our sails.

Do not put your trust in a friend who has betrayed you once.

True friendship is proven in the storm of adversity.

He who carries a burden of worries on his head will surely sink when crossing the turbulent river of worldly life.

The sage walks through fire and is not burned, scales the heights and does not tremble, enters the deep and does not drown.

When you hide a boat in a valley, a strong man can still steal it in the night. But if you hide the universe in the universe, where could it be taken?
