A true friend freely, advises justly, assists readily, adventures boldly, takes all patiently, defends courageously, and continues a friend unchangeably.
William Penn
Ask a woman's advice, and whatever she advises, Do the very reverse and you're sure to be wise.
Thomas More
I hardly expected the grand jury to sustain me, after they saw everything different from what it had been while I was there. Yet they did, and their report to the court advises all the changes made that I had proposed.
Nellie Bly
It's my old girl that advises. She has the head. But I never own to it before her. Discipline must be maintained.
Charles Dickens
Proverbs often contradict one another, as any reader soon discovers. The sagacity that advises us to look before we leap promptly warns us that if we hesitate we are lost; that absence makes the heart grow fonder, but out of sight, out of mind.
