“Trust is the fruit of a relationship in which you know you are loved.”

“Mackenzie, you cannot produce trust, just as you cannot 'do' humility. It either is or is not. Trust is the fruit of a relationship in which you know you are loved. Because you do not know that I love you, you cannot trust me.”

“Trust is to human relationships what faith is to gospel living. It is the beginning place, the foundation upon which more can be built. Where trust is, love can flourish.”

“Trust and respect are more important than love in a relationship because no love will last without equal amounts of respect and trust.”

“The smarter you are, the more you know, the less reason you have to trust or love or confide.”

The windows are the aspects of your relationship that are open to the world—that is, the necessary gaps through which you interact with family and friends; the walls are the barriers of trust behind which you guard the most intimatesecrets of your marriage.”
