William Shakespeare on advice

If music be the food of love, play on.

This above all: to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.

Accept good advice gracefully⁠—as long as it doesn’t interfere with what you intended to do in the first place.

I always pass on good advice. It is the only thing to do with it. It is never of any use to oneself.
