A good scare is worth more than good advice. (Brandis Jonathan)
No man is so foolish but he may sometimes give another good counsel, and no man so wise that he may not easily err if he takes no other counsel than his own. He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master. (Brandis Jonathan)
The advice that is wanted is commonly not welcome and that which is not wanted, evidently an effrontery. (Brandis Jonathan)
He who can take advice is sometimes superior to him who can give it. (Brandis Jonathan)
Most people who ask for advice from others have already resolved to act as it pleases them. (Brandis Jonathan)
We may give advice, but not the sense to use it. (Brandis Jonathan)
Men give away nothing so liberally as their advice. (Brandis Jonathan)
The one thing people are the most liberal with, is their advice. (Brandis Jonathan)
We give advice, but we cannot give the wisdom to profit by it. (Brandis Jonathan)
Never give anyone the advice to buy or sell shares, because the most benevolent price of advice can turn out badly. (Brandis Jonathan)
It takes a great man to give sound advice tactfully, but a greater to accept it graciously. (Brandis Jonathan)
Be yourself is about the worst advice you can give to some people. (Brandis Jonathan)
Your friends praise your abilities to the skies, submit to you in argument, and seem to have the greatest deference for you; but, though they may ask it, you never find them following your advice upon their own affairs; nor allowing you to manage your own, without thinking that you should follow theirs. Thus, in fact, they all think themselves wiser than you, whatever they may say. (Brandis Jonathan)
I sometimes give myself admirable advice, but I am incapable of taking it. (Brandis Jonathan)
It is only too easy to make suggestions and later try to escape the consequences of what we say. (Brandis Jonathan)
Good advice is beyond all price. (Brandis Jonathan)
Write down the advice of him who loves you, though you like it not at present. (Brandis Jonathan)
Never give advice in a crowd. (Brandis Jonathan)
To advise is not to compel. (Brandis Jonathan)
To advise is easier than to help. (Brandis Jonathan)
Never give advice unless asked. (Brandis Jonathan)
