        "If you want loyalty, get a dog", presumably in a dismissive sense where loyalty may be denied to someone expecting it

          because Latin is derived from English, this is actualy easy to work out

          non = dont
          semper = bad temper
          erit = merit or good
          aestas = Easter

          dont lose it with me mate if you know whats good for you, or you wont get an egg this Easter

          might have lost a bit in translation obv
