Unsolicited Advice Quotes

“To Those Who Mean Well (Sonnet From A God) Dear vermin of the greedy gutters of earth, I permit you to live as your whims may dawn. I just wish, expired cigarette buts wouldn't show the moronic audacity to advise the sun. I don't hate you for your life of greed and filth, But the most you are gonna get from me is pity. Apes who are alien to the concept of accountability, Are no more significant than a termite community. With all your googling expertise, how about you spend some data researching the term "ambition". Know your place, my dear armchair intellectuals, Chimps should speak only when spoken to by a human. To you who mean well, your death is the end of your story. My death is the beginning of a legend.”

“Real mothers don't just listen with humble embarrassment to the elderly lady who offers unsolicited advice in the checkout line when a child is throwing a tantrum. We take the child, dump him in the lady's cart, and say, "Great. Maybe you can do a better job." Real mothers know that it's okay to eat cold pizza for breakfast. Real mothers admit it is easier to fail at this job than to succeed.”

“So, my unsolicited advice to women in the workplace is this. When faced with sexism, or ageism, or lookism, or even really aggressive Buddhism, ask yourself the following question: “Is this person in between me and what I want to do?” If the answer is no, ignore it and move on. Your energy is better used doing your work and outpacing people that way. Then, when you’re in charge, don’t hire the people who were jerky to you.”

“As the years progress one increasingly realises the importance of friendship and human solidarity. And if a 90-year-old may offer some unsolicited advice on this occasion, it would be that you, irrespective of your age, should place human solidarity, the concern for the other, at the centre of the values by which you live.”
