Lines of Truth

In today’s day and age, it’s good to know that knowledge can be summed up into age-old axioms of wisdom. I thought I’d start compiling a list of items and one liners that everyone should know.

The Trust Factors

1. Everybody lies, so don’t trust their words.
2. Never trust a traitor because if they can betray one person, they can betray you.
3. Only fools and jackasses trust salesmen.
4. There is no such thing as an Honest Person, just Relativity to the Perception of the Truth.
5. It takes one to break trust, it takes forever to rebuild it.
6. If someone tells you a secret, then how can you trust them with your secrets.
7. Allow all to trust you, as knowledge will come to you and knowledge is power.

Business Success

1. Having a lower price doesn’t mean cutting your neck, just means you’re cutting your competitor’s neck for them.
