Young men are fitter to invent than to judge; fitter for execution than for counsel; and fitter for new projects than for settled business.
Francis Bacon Quotes
There is as much difference between the counsel that a friend giveth, and that a man giveth himself, as there is between the counsel of a friend and of a flatterer. For there is no such flatterer as is a man's self.
