Faith and fear cross over trust. Trust open the possibility of betrayal or friendship. Being afraid is felt with each mention of fear.
Up at 1 AM due to angina pain. I turned on the TV:
Commander William T. Riker: In all trust, there is the possibility of betrayal. I’m not sure you were… prepared for that.Lt. Commander Data: Were you prepared, sir?
Commander William T. Riker: I don’t think anybody ever is.
Lt. Commander Data: Hm… Then it is better not to trust?
Commander William T. Riker: Without trust, there’s no friendship, no closeness. None of the emotional bonds that make us who we are.
Lt. Commander Data: And yet you put yourself at risk.
Commander William T. Riker: Every single time.
Lt. Commander Data: Perhaps I am fortunate, sir, to be spared the emotional consequences.
Commander William T. Riker: Perhaps.
