Trust Quotes

  • "People ask me why it's so hard to trust people, and I ask them, why is it so hard to keep a promise."
  • "I'll start letting my guard down when people stop giving me reasons to keep it up. "
  • "I've learned the best way to prevent your heart from getting broken, is to act like you don't have one. "
  • "“Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.” -Golda Meir, 4th Prime Minister of Israel
  • "Never trust sheep. " -Ryan Stiles

And my favourite one of all, of course by the great William Shakespeare:

  • "This above all, to thine own self be true." -Hamlet

A clever interpretation of the quote:
"It means to first know thyself, who you are, why you behave, act, speak and react in the way you do. Know all that lurks in your subconscious driving your will at times to your destruction. To know your own mind and conquer it with mastery of will is to be true to oneself without compromise or egotism."


Christian Troy from Nip/Tuck


"God gave me a dick and I intend to glorify him by playing that organ as intensely and as often as possible."

"Once you've seen a woman's cumface, you've seen her soul."

"You want the wisdom to know the difference between what you can and can't change? Here's step 13: everything disappears. Love, trees, rocks, steel, plastic, human beings. None of us get out alive. Now you can huddle in a group and face it one day at a time, or you can be grateful that when your body rubs against somebody else's it explodes with enough pleasure to make you forget even for a minute that you're a walking pile of ashes. Now that is the truth. If you're strong it'll make you free, if you're weak, it'll make you... you."

Lykke Li


Lykke Li has been my favourite musician ever since I heard 'Until We Bleed' years ago. I have absolutely loved almost every song shes made and so if I were to start posting my favourite videos of her this post would never end. I have tried to narrow down the list in an attempt to only include the special performances and truly powerful songs.

Lykke Li - Tonight (live acoustic)
This performance would even make Schwarzenegger or Stallone cry

Lykke Li - I'm Good, I'm Gone (live in the back of a cab)

Lykke Li - Little Bit (acoustic on the beach)
