So okay - there you are in your room with the shade down and the door shut and the plug pulled out of the base of the telephone. You've blown up your TV and committed yourself to a thousand words a day, come hell or high water. Now comes the big question: What are you going to write about? And the equally big answer: Anything you damn well want.
Stephen King
It takes a great man to give sound advice tactfully, but a greater to accept it graciously.
J. C. Macaulay
Now ... if you trust in yourself ... and believe in your dreams ... and follow your star ... you'll still get beaten by people who spent time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy. Goodbye.
Terry Pratchett
Michael: This used to be my father's old study -- it's changed. I remember there used to be a big desk, right here. I remember when I was a kid, Frankie, we had to be very quiet when we played near here. I was very happy that this house never went to strangers -- first Clemenza took it over, now you. My father taught me many things here -- he taught me in this room... (then, as Michael sits beside Pentangeli) He taught me -- keep your friends close but your enemies closer.
Mario Puzo, Al Pacino as Michael
It is easy when we are in prosperity to give advice to the afflicted.
Aeschylus
There is as much difference between the counsel that a friend giveth, and that a man giveth himself, as there is between the counsel of a friend and of a flatterer. For there is no such flatterer as is a man's self.
Francis Bacon
Live. And Live Well. BREATHE. Breathe in and Breathe deeply. Be PRESENT. Do not be past. Do not be future. Be now. On a crystal clear, breezy 70 degree day, roll down the windows and FEEL the wind against your skin. Feel the warmth of the sun. If you run, then allow those first few breaths on a cool Autumn day to FREEZE your lungs and do not just be alarmed, be ALIVE. Get knee-deep in a novel and LOSE track of time. If you bike, pedal HARD
Kyle Lake, Sermon
To advise is easier than to help.
Proverb
Give help rather than advice.
Marquis De Vauvenargues
I am glad that I paid so little attention to good advice; had I abided by it I might have been saved from some of my most valuable mistakes.
Gene Fowler
He who can take advice is sometimes superior to him who can give it.
Karl Von Knebel
American couples have gone to such lengths to avoid the interference of in-laws that they have to pay marriage counselors to interfere between them.

Be smart, be intelligent and be informed.
Tony Alesandra
Talk is free but the wise man chooses when to spend his words.
Neil Gaiman
Most people who ask for advice from others have already resolved to act as it pleases them.
Kahlil Gibran
Never advise anyone to go to war or to get married. Write down the advice of him who loves you, though you like it not at present. He that has no children brings them up well.
You can't drive straight on a twisting lane.
