I will no longer devote a single minute to those who are lying or trying to manipulate me. I decided not to exist in pretense, hypocrisy, lies and cheap, insincere praise. I will no longer suffer either partially educated or arrogant scientists. I am not going to deal with gossip, I hate conflict and comparison. I believe that the world consists of opposites, that the world is diverse, so I try to avoid people with a tough character, not able to adapt to the environment. I despise betrayal and infidelity in friendship. I can’t get along with those who are not capable of real compliment, is not able to encourage and inspire in my own words, I can’t get along with those who do not like animals. Exaggeration tires me.
