Don't say you're inspired if you keep nagging. Don't appreciate if you're not satisfied. Don't indulge if you're neither a materialised person. Don't complain if you're not amused. Don't be a smug if you're too obnoxious to others. Don't interest out of my expense. Don't end without starting. Don't runnaway if you know you can hide forever.
