\\\ЁСИФ СТАЛИН///

Hey wonderful Russian forum people,

A famous quote is attributed to Stalin-- "I trust no one, not even myself." I like to bark it at my students, followed by an "EYES ON YOUR OWN PAPER COMRADE!" when I see them glancing at each other's quizzes.

I was wondering what the Russian translation of this is. Maybe it's this? (my horrific
translation follows)

Веру в никого, ни даже своего.

To be honest, I can not find a good prooflink now. In some strange way, the phrase remained in my head, and I found a couple of citations in Yandex, but without any reference, sorry.
