Your confidence in the people, and your doubt about them, are closely related to your self-confidence and your self-doubt.

Summary

This quote suggests that our perceptions and beliefs about others are deeply connected to our own level of self-confidence and self-doubt. When we have confidence in ourselves, we are more likely to have confidence in the abilities and potential of others. Conversely, when we doubt ourselves, our doubt in others also tends to increase. This highlights the intertwined nature of how we view ourselves and how we perceive and trust others.
