~ Generosity gives assistance, rather than advice. ~ ~ THE BEST career advice given to the young is: ?Find out what you like doing best and get someone to pay you for doing it.? ~ ~ Accept good advice gracefully--as long as it doesn't interfere with what you intended to do in the first place. ~ ~ I daresay one profits more by the mistakes one makes off one's own bat than by doing the right thing on somebody's else advice. ~ ~ He had only one vanity; he thought he could give advice better than any other person ~ ~ 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. ~ ~ My advice to gardeners is to believe what you see as temporal entertainment; a gift from nature. Do not pass on your interpretation as gospel. Do not seek interpretation from others. ~ ~ No vice is so bad as advice ~ ~ When a man won't listen to his conscience, it's usually because he doesn't want advice from a total stranger ~ ~ It is easy to give advice from a port of safety. ~ ~ We all admire the wisdom of people who come to us for advice. ~ ~ My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just enjoy the ice cream while it's on your plate ~ ~ One final paragraph of advice: Do not burn yourselves out. Be as I am - a reluctant enthusiast... a part-time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half of yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it's still here. So get out there and hunt and fish and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, encounter the grizz, climb the mountains, bag the peaks, run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit quietly for awhile and contemplate the precious stillness, that lovely, mysterious and awesome space. Enjoy yourselves, keep your brain in your head and your head firmly attached to the body, the body active and alive, and I promise you this one sweet victory over our enemies, over those desk-bound people with their hearts in a safe deposit box and their eyes hypnotized by desk calculators. I promise you this: You will outlive the bastards. ~ ~ Never trust the advice of a man in difficulties ~ ~ When in reading we meet with any maxim that may be of use, we should take it for our own, and make an immediate application of it, as we would of the advice of a friend whom we have purposely consulted. ~ ~ Every father should remember that one day his son will follow his example instead of his advice. ~ ~ An alert and learned man will take advice from any event. ~ ~ It is easy when we are in prosperity to give advice to the afflicted. ~ ~ Ask advice only of your equals. ~ ~ The best practical advice I can give to the present generation is to practice the virtue which the Christians call love. ~ ~ I never had a man come to me for advice yet, but what I soon discovered that he thought more of his own opinion than he did of mine. ~ ~ It is easy when we are in prosperity to give advice to the afflicted.
~ ~ Never trust the advice of a man in difficulties
~ ~ People who ask our advice almost never take it. Yet we should never refuse to give it, upon request, for it often helps us to see our own way more clearly
~ ~ The advice of friends must be received with a judicious reserve; we must not give ourselves up to it and follow it blindly, whether right or wrong
~ ~ Advice is seldom welcome; and those who want it the most always like it the least
~ ~ Quit now, you'll never make it. If you disregard this advice, you'll be halfway there. ~ ~
The best practical advice I can give to the present generation is to practice the virtue which the Christians call love. ~ ~ It is a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success; they much oftener succeed through failures. Precept, study, advice, and example could never have taught them so well as failure has done. ~ ~ "Be yourself" is about the worst advice you can give some people. ~ |
