at any price -
that's what I call
good advice.”

“It is always a silly thing to give advice, but to give good advice is absolutely fatal.”

“I know now that what makes a fool is an inability to take even his own good advice.”

“Q: What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
JM: Never get into a situation you can’t get out of. I really have stuck to it, because it’s good advice for all walks of live.”

“I distrust any advice that contains the words 'ought' or 'should'.”

“…I said everything that matters… Don't take my advice. Or anyone's advice. Trust yourself. For good or for bad, happy or unhappy, it's your life, and what you do with it has always been entirely up to you.”

“Today, the most dangerous advice you can give a child is ‘Go to school, get good grades and look for a safe secure job,’ ” he likes to say. “That is old advice, and it’s bad advice. If you could see what is happening in Asia, Europe, South America, you would be as concerned as I am.”
