Molière on advice

A learned fool is more foolish than an ignorant one.

Those whose conduct gives room for talk
Are always the first to attack their neighbors.

All that is not prose is verse; and all that is not verse is prose.

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)
