Dishonesty Breeds Dishonesty/ Ch. 17

In life, many cynics believe that the only person that an individual can completely trust is oneself. Why do you agree/ disagree with this philosophy? After reading chapter seventeen, do you think Torey should adopt this philosophy? Provide evidence from the book for your response.

I do agree with this, I feel you should have friends and someone to talk to but you should always watch out for who you should trust.I don't only think Torey should follow this but everyone especially with the reputation Steepleton has, no one can be trusted. Torey can talk to his friend burt needs to stay independent and watch what he says to his friends and other people.
