Summary

This quote suggests that good advice should not be kept to oneself, but rather shared with others. The implied notion is that advice holds no value if it remains within one's personal realm. In order for advice to have any practical benefit, it must be passed on and applied by others. This encourages the idea of selflessness and altruism, emphasizing the importance of helping others by sharing our knowledge and experiences. Ultimately, the quote highlights the idea that the true value of advice lies in its ability to positively impact others, rather than solely benefiting oneself.
