Advice

Famous quotes containing the word advice:

    Stuff a cold and starve a cold are but two ways. They are the two practices, both always in full blast. Yet you must take the advice of the one school as if there was no other.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I’ve been asked to give some words of advice for young women entering library/information science education. Does anyone ever take advice? The advice we give is usually what we would do or would have done if we had the chance, and the advice that’s taken, if ever, is often what we wanted to hear in the first place.
    Phyllis Dain (b. 1930)

    It is an imprudence common to kings to listen to too much advice and to err in their choice.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
