Approval

"The first step in freeing yourself from social
restrictions is the realization that there is no
such thing as a 'safe' code of conduct - one that
would earn everyone's approval. Your actions can
always be condemned by someone - for being too
bold or too apathetic, for being too conformist
or too nonconformist, for being too liberal or
too conservative. So it's necessary to decide
whose approval is important to you."
-- Harry Browne

Do you really need anyone's approval?

That's up to you to decide, ain't it.
