Old men are fond of giving good advice, to console themselves for being no longer in a position to give bad examples.
François La Rochefoucauld
When
a man comes to me for advice, I find out the kind of advice he wants, and I
give it to him. Henry Wheeler Shaw, a.k.a.
Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn't.
Erica Jong
We
hate to have some people give us advice because we know how badly they need it
themselves.

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.
Josh Billings
Sometimes
I give myself admirable advice, but I am incapable of taking it.
Mary
Wortley Montagu
I always pass on good advice. It's the only thing to do with it. It
is never any use to oneself. Oscar Wilde
A good scare is worth more to a man than good advice.
Edgar Watson Howe
The
true secret of giving advice is, after you have honestly given it, to be
perfectly indifferent whether it is taken or not, and never persist in trying
to set people right.
Hannah Whitall Smith
The best way to succeed in life is to act on the advice we give to
others.
