Not to return to Panama until a Yankee hotel had reconstructed the country.
Not to personally undertake the reformation of the tropics.
Not to train the servants of aliens.
Not to begin by getting hot when I wanted to keep cool.
Not to be a conqueror.
Not to do in Rome as the Romans did.
Not to take a Turkish bath and call it a siesta.
Not to drink frescoes when I wanted water.
Not to do the tropics, nor let the tropics do me.
Not to have opinions, but try to understand things.
