Quote by Oscar Wilde

I always pass on good advice, it is the only thing to do with it.It is never of any use to oneself.

I always pass on good advice, it is the only thing to do wit

Summary

This quote suggests that the best course of action when receiving good advice is to pass it on to others rather than keeping it for oneself. The implication is that the value of advice lies in its application and impact on others, implying that keeping it to oneself is unproductive. It implies that sharing wisdom and helping others benefit from it outweighs the personal satisfaction derived from taking the advice alone, highlighting the importance of selflessness and the idea that knowledge is most valuable when shared with others.
