Advice

Famous quotes containing the word advice:

“Parents cannot expect advice to have the same force upon their children as experience has upon themselves.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

“I think that parents ought to get some idea of how the so- called “experts” have changed their advice over the decades, so that they won’t take them deadly seriously, and so that if the parent has the strong feeling, “I don’t like this advice,” the parent won’t feel compelled to follow it. . . . So don’t worry about trying to do a perfect job. There is no perfect job. There is no one way of raising your children.”
—Benjamin Spock (b. 1903)

“I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career.”
—Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)
