NOTE
1) Some verbs can take a full infinitive or the -ing form with no difference in meaning. These verbs are:
begin, hate, like, love, prefer, start etc.
e.g. He likes to watch / watching the birds.
2) If the subject of the verb is the same as the subject of the infinitive, then the subject of the infinitive is omitted. If, however, the subject of the verb is different from the subject of the infinitive, then an object pronoun (me, you, him etc) is placed before the infinitive.
Compare: I want to be back at 10 o'clock.
I want him to be back at 10 o'clock.
