Page maintainer's note: this is a post that Stephen made to the TF authors' loop. We all thought it was funny. Basically, it's a reference to all the times people talk about trust.

-A Musical interlude-
1. "Trust me, sister. Trust me, I used to direct a large choir, we needed all the voices we could get. So few people have a good voice now, you do. You're needed."
2. "Trust me, sister. I know what I'm seeing. Go home. Be at peace. Sing. Life's too short to waste it."

--Change of perspective--
3. she had seen Alberta's expression. _She doesn't trust me yet,_ Greer thought sadly.

--These Daughters and these sisters--
4. "Joe, it's not a matter of me standing him. He's a good man, and he's very obviously taught before. It's more a matter of building trust - and I know I have started out on the wrong foot."
5. "I won't argue with you there," Greer said. "I'm sure that what I have done is wrong. I can see that now. But many of us can't. I'm not asking you to trust us. I am just asking that you understand."
6. "I'm not worried," he said, with a little shake of his head. "I trust you. I know you."
7. "Thanks," she said, moved. "I trust you too."
8. "Well, they've got it well hidden. Trust me, they're there."
9. "You seem to be so sure the shooting was part of a conspiracy." "It was. Trust me."
10. "No, you'll find it yourself, trust me. You're intelligent enough, I think."

--Differing Varieties--
11. I think we can trust them, Adam said.
12. Let me try, Adam replied. "We already trust him with ours. I think if you trust him with yours, he can clear you and keep your secret."
13. The General nodded. "If my son thinks you're trustworthy, then I'll assume you are not part of the bombing."
14. "You'll have him. Trust me."

--Telepathic Ghosts--
15. "I know. You'll get it eventually, believe me," Adam said.

--Mistakes--
16. Most who knew we trusted implicitly to keep our secret.
17. I put a hand on his shoulder from across the table. "We'll get home. Trust me."

--With human blood and human tears--
18. "I know that, love, but I don't trust anyone here, with one of us infiltrating the organization. I don't even trust the person I'm calling about that. But he might be able to shed some light on Lisa's whereabouts."
19. "Joe Dawson. I may not like him, or completely trust him, but he might understand what's happening."
20. Pierson's face was a study of innocence, mingled somewhat with curiosity. I wonder. Is he really interested in me? Is he really a good guy? Can I trust him?

--The Atropos project--
21. How could he face Marmaduke -- 'Megabyte,' he mentally corrected -- and say he no longer believed him about something so fundamental. He did believe him.
22. "I've heard it before. Now I'm not sure I believe it."
