My mother's mantra was, 'How would it look to the neighbors?' And so you don't do anything because you're worried about how it would look to the neighbors.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
To do exactly as your neighbors do is the only sensible rule.
When strong, be merciful, if you would have the respect, not the fear of your neighbors.
It would be hard to go to your neighbor and say the things people say on the Internet without getting punched out or having your tires slashed.
I get a lot of people telling me that I'd make a good 'wacky neighbor.' I wouldn't mind that, if it was a starting-off point.
Unfortunately, you cannot let your neck be kind of cut as a gesture for your neighbor, even if it's a good neighbor.
Neighbors are competitors instead of partners, suspicious instead of trustful, indifferent instead of helpful, cold instead of loving, greedy instead of generous. We no longer consider ourselves living in neighborhoods, but only as living next to 'hoods.'
If people are concerned about my house and where I live again it's much more of a reflection on them than it is on me.
Love your neighbor as yourself; but don't take down the fence.
Do unto yourself as your neighbors do unto themselves and look pleasant.
If you want to annoy your neighbors, tell the truth about them.
