George Bernard Shaw on advice

Some men see things as they are and say why⁠—I dream things that never were and say why not.

Why should we take advice on sex from the pope? If he knows anything about it, he shouldn’t!

Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it.

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)
