Robert Fulghum on advice

The devil made me do it the first time, and after that I did it on my own.

I don’t think the thing is to be well known, but being worth knowing.

Live a balanced life — learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.

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.
