Best Quotes about Advice
We may give advice, but not the sense to use it.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
Never give advice unless asked.
German Proverb
Never advise anyone to go to war or to marry.
Spanish Proverb
It is only too easy to make suggestions and later try to escape the consequences of what we say.
Nehru, Jawaharlal
Be smart, be intelligent and be informed.
Alesandra, Tony
Some of these people need ten years of therapy --ten sentences of mine do not equal ten years of therapy.
Zaslow, Jeff
Never claim as a right what you can ask as a favor.
Collins, John Churton
Never advise anyone to go to war or to get married. Write down the advice of him who loves you, though you like it not at present. He that has no children brings them up well.
Proverb, Spanish
To listen to some devout people, one would imagine that God never laughs.
Aurobindo, Ghose
The one thing people are the most liberal with, is their advice.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
I am glad that I paid so little attention to good advice; had I abided by it I might have been saved from some of my most valuable mistakes.
Fowler, Gene
Give help rather than advice.
Vauvenargues, Marquis De
It takes a great man to give sound advice tactfully, but a greater to accept it graciously.
Macaulay, J. C.
The advice that is wanted is commonly not welcome and that which is not wanted, evidently an effrontery.
Johnson, Samuel
The only thing to do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself.
Wilde, Oscar
Never take the advice of someone who has not had your kind of trouble.
Sidney J. Harris
We hate those who will not take our advice, and despise them who do.
Shaw, Henry Wheeler
The rich are always advising the poor, but the poor seldom return the compliment.
Helps, Sir Arthur
There is hardly a man on earth who will take advice unless he is certain that it is positively bad.
Dahlberg, Edward
No one wants advice, only corroboration.
Steinbeck, John
Never trust the advice of a man in difficulties.
Aesop
Your friends praise your abilities to the skies, submit to you in argument, and seem to have the greatest deference for you; but, though they may ask it, you never find them following your advice upon their own affairs; nor allowing you to manage your own, without thinking that you should follow theirs. Thus, in fact, they all think themselves wiser than you, whatever they may say.
Melbourne, Lord
Advice is like snow; the softer it falls the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper it sinks into the mind.
Coleridge, Samuel Taylor
Wise men don't need advice. Fools won't take it.
Franklin, Benjamin
The best advisers, helpers and friends, always are not those who tell us how to act in special cases, but who give us, out of themselves, the ardent spirit and desire to act right, and leave us then, even through many blunders, to find out what our own form of right action is.
Brooks, Phillips
People who ask our advice almost never take it. Yet we should never refuse to give it, upon request, for it often helps us to see our own way more clearly.
Brendan Francis
Write down the advice of him who loves you, though you like it not at present.
English Proverb
I have lived some thirty-odd years on this planet, and I have yet to hear the first syllable of valuable or even earnest advice from my seniors.
Thoreau, Henry David
It is bad advice that cannot be changed.
Syrus, Publilius
Anybody who ask for advice nowadays just hasn't been listening.
If one man says to thee, Thou art a donkey, pay no heed. If two speak thus, purchase a saddle.
Talmud, The
In giving advice, seek to help, not please, your friend.
Solon
Where no counsel is, the people fall; but in the multitude of counselors there is safety. [Proverbs 11:14]
Bible
In those days he was wiser than he is now -- he used frequently to take my advice.
Churchill, Winston
The only thing to do with good advice is pass it on. It is never any use to oneself.
Oscar Wilde
Most of us ask for advice when we know the answer but we want a different one.
Ball, Ivern
When we turn to one another for counsel we reduce the number of our enemies.
Gibran, Kahlil
A pint of example is worth a gallon of advice
Many receive advice, only the wise profit from it.
Syrus, Publilius
The true secret of giving advice is, after you have honestly given it, to be perfectly indifferent whether it is taken or not, and never persist in trying to set people right.
Hannah Whitall Smith
Let no man under value the price of a virtuous woman's counsel.
Chapman, George
I shall the effect of this good lesson keeps as watchman to my heart.
Shakespeare, William

La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

Edna St. Vincent Millay
There is as much difference between the counsel that a friend giveth, and that a man giveth himself, as there is between the counsel of a friend and of a flatterer. For there is no such flatterer as is a man's self.
Bacon, Francis
In matters of religion and matrimony I never give any advice; because I will not have anybody's torments in this world or the next laid to my charge.
Chesterfield, Lord
