Nixon to Clinton: “When seeking advice from people who are more experienced than you, tell them what you plan to do first, and then ask for their reaction. Don’t ask for their advice, and then ignore it. That way you save on bruised feelings.

It’s often mistaken for good advice, but wisdom cannot be imparted to someone. Wisdom can only be earned; it’s a by-product of experience, not necessarily knowledge, otherwise I would be stalking Oprah right now, begging for a transfusion.

It’s one of my theories that when people give you advice, they’re really just talking to themselves in the past.
