It is important not to trust people too much.

Summary

This quote suggests that we should exercise caution when placing trust in others. While trust can be essential for building relationships and fostering cooperation, it is important to recognize that placing blind trust in others can be risky. People may have their own motivations, hidden agendas, or may make mistakes that can jeopardize our interests. By maintaining a certain level of skepticism and not relying excessively on others, we can protect ourselves from potential betrayal or disappointment while still being open to fostering meaningful connections.

For now she need not think of anybody. She coud be herself, by herself. And that was what now she often felt the need of - to think; well not even to think. To be silent; to be alone.
