If I were asked to give what I consider the single most useful bit of advice for all humanity, it would be this Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life, and when it comes, hold your head high. Look it squarely in the eye, and say, I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me. ~ Ann Landers Never take the advice of someone who has not had your kind of trouble. ~ Sidney J. Harris Good advice is something a man gives when he is too old to set a bad example. ~ Francois de La Rochefoucauld In the choice of a horse and a wife, a man must please himself, ignoring the opinion and advice of friends. ~ George John Whyte-Melville When a thing is done, advice comes too late. ~ Romanian Proverb Write down the advice of him who loves you, though you like it not at present. ~ English Proverb
Free advice is worth the price. ~ Robert Half Never trust the advice of a man in difficulties. ~ Aesop
Careful with fire is good advice we know. Careful with words is ten times doubly so. ~ William Carleton I have lived some thirty years on this planet and I have yet to hear the first syllable of valuable or even earnest advice from my seniors. ~ Henry David Thoreau The advice of friends must be received with a judicious reserve; we must not give ourselves up to it and follow it blindly, whether right or wrong. ~ Pierre Charron I agree with every word you write, and I can prove this in no better way than by taking your advice from beginning to end. ~ Ellen Glasgow
