There's a fine line between criticism and constructive criticism.
There's a fine line between being supportive of a struggling grad student and prolonging a bad situation that should terminated.
There's a fine line between being mature and being a doormat.
There's a fine line between educating and entertaining.
There's a fine line between careful consideration and indecisiveness.
There's a fine line between being sane and not sane.
