About This Quote

Some people tend to be very eager to offer their advice or criticisms in situations in which they are not fully informed. This can lead to confusion and frustration when the advice they give is wrong or causes harm. Because of this, it is wise to avoid offering advice when you are not completely sure of the facts.
