About This Quote
He hated when his own advice applied to himself. This is a very sarcastic comment. You can think this is very true. When you are saying something to yourself, you need to know if you really like it or not.
If you like it, then you should do it (i.e., follow your own advice). If you hate it, then don’t do that (i.e., do not follow your own advice).
