“Me sentí como un insecto adormecido por el veneno de una araña, atrapada en su tela, aletargada y a merced del caprichoso apetito de su anfitriona. Su mirada provocaba ese efecto; te apresaba sin apenas dejarte tregua para la más cobarde de las huidas.”

“The opposite of interpersonal trust is not mistrust. It is despair. This is because we have given up on believing that trustworthiness and fulfillment are possible from others. We have lost our hope in our fellow humans.”

“When we feel unsafe with someone and still stay with him, we damage our ability to discern trustworthiness in those we will meet in the future.”
