Good advice is a wise man's friend, of course; but sometimes it just flies on past, and all you can do is wave.

Leif Enger

It costs to be a friend or to have a friend. There is nothing else in life except motherhood that costs so much. It not only costs time, affection, patience, love, but sometimes a man must even lay down his life for his friends. There is no true friendship without self-abnegation, self-sacrifice.

Anna Robertson Brown Lindsay

Use the freest goods for happiness... The stars cost nothing. Nature costs nothing. Your inner life costs nothing. God costs nothing. And yet they are all infinitely precious.

Robert Muller

Never take advice from anyone in a tie. They'll bankrupt you. Don't ask a general for advice on war, and don't ask a broker for advice on money.

Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Let men be wise by instinct if they can, but when this fails be wise by good advice.

Sophocles

I realize that advice is worth what it costs--that is, nothing.

Douglas MacArthur

I always advise children who ask me for tips on being a writer to read as much as they possibly can. Jane Austen gave a young friend the same advice, so I'm in good company there.

J. K. Rowling

In my own experience, including when I ask for advice, I would ask a collaborator, a friend, I also like to hear the opinion of a woman because they have such wealth. They look at things in a different way.

Pope Francis

One man envies the success in life of another, and hates him in secret; nor is he willing to give him good advice when he is consulted, except it be by some wonderful effort of good feeling, and there are, alas, few such men in the world. A real friend, on the other hand, exults in his friend?s happiness, rejoices in all his joys, and is ready to afford him the best advice.

Herodotus

Advice is like kissing: it costs nothing and is a pleasant thing to do.

Josh Billings

Every man, however wise, needs the advice of some sagacious friend in the affairs of life.

Plautus

Friendship of the wise is good; a wise enemy is better than a foolish friend.

Rumi

Ask a woman's advice, and whatever she advises, Do the very reverse and you're sure to be wise.

Thomas Moore

Go not to the Elves for counsel, for they will say both no and yes. Elves seldom give unguarded advice, for advice is a dangerous gift, even from the wise to the wise, and all courses may run ill.

J. R. R. Tolkien

My dad is such a good man. You know how when you are a child you think your dad is invincible? Well, I still think that - he is so wise and everything I do I ask my dad's advice about first.

Leona Lewis

People ask me for advice. And the best advice I can give aspiring singers is to know in your heart this is your calling and there's nothing else you'd rather do.
