Who Are You Going to Believe?
It’s not enough to insist that you are a trustworthy honest person, possessed of so much integrity that you would never contemplate ripping anybody off!
You can proclaim you’re honest all you like, but what does that prove?
Instead, assume that every statement, every claim or promise, every assertion and every fact, will at best be questioned, at worst disbelieved.
