Trust Quotes: Trust is not something you just give and get, trust is earned. You should be reliable to be trusted. Trust is very fragile and hence it needs to be honored and kept intact because if once broken it cannot be earned back that easily. To be able to earn someone's trust you have to make them believe that you are worthy of it and that you would not make them regret their decision of placing their trust upon you. One only trusts someone when they believe in them completely and find them reliable. People only place their trust upon the people they believe will never hurt them, betray them, or disappoint them. Nobody places their trust in a liar or a cheater. Since trust is very fragile it can be broken by even a small lie or even a minute betrayal. Trust is like a mirror if once broken even if it is repaired there will trace left behind and it will never be like it was before. People who lie or betray and break someone's trust sometimes realize their mistakes and apologize for it and even though their apology might be accepted and they will never have that same relationship between them.
