Ludwig Wittgenstein on advice

A man will be imprisoned in a room with a door that’s unlocked and opens inwards; as long as it does not occur to him to pull rather than push.

Ambition is the death of thought.

An entire mythology is stored within our language.

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

Gene Brown

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

Oscar Wilde1854–1900An Ideal Husband (1895)

Never take anything for granted.

Benjamin Disraeli1804–1881Speech at Salthill (5 October 1864)
