1. A man who doesn’t trust himself can never really trust anyone else. – Cardinal de Retz
2. Self-trust is the first secret of success. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
3. The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when you discover that someone else believes in you and is willing to trust you with a friendship. – Ralph Waldo Emerson (adapted)
4. To dream anything that you want to dream. That’s the beauty of the human mind. To do anything that you want to do. That is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself to test your limits. That is the courage to succeed. – Bernard Edmonds
5. Remember, there are no mistakes, only lessons. Love yourself, trust your choices, and everything is possible. – Cherie-Carter Scotts
6. Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity. - Kahlil Gibran

Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit. – E.E. Cummings
11. A human being is only interesting if he’s in contact with himself. I learned you have to trust yourself, be what you are, and do what you ought to do the way you should do it. You have got to discover you, what you do, and trust it. – Barbra Streisand

15. Trust that little voice in your head that says “Wouldn’t it be interesting if..”; And then do it. – Duane Michals
Have a terrific day

I find ee cummings to be very inspirational as a writer and thinker and all around great human being. Here’s a story that I created based on one of his quotes: http://fastfictions.wordpress.com/2008/03/02/i’m-a-pilot-flying-for-west-jet/

Thanks for stopping by Kevin
I have always enjoyed e.e. cummings and finding one of his quotes to add to my article was a delightful surprise.
You have a poetic way with words yourself.
Cheers,
Lorraine

Thank you for this list, Lorraine,
Perhaps none of these ideas are new to us, but having them presented differently makes them fresh and vibrant.
This was a pleasure to read.

I love #9 – I’m a huge Rent fan and Jonathan Laron is right: There’s No Day But Today!

I enjoyed Rent too Alex,
It’s a great quote. Thanks for leaving me a comment!
I felt the same way Brennan,
There’s something about having a list of quotes compiled that focus on a theme.
Thanks for continuing to leave comments.
Have wonderful evening Alex and Brennan
