About This Quote

A word to the wise is infuriating. Sometimes good intentions and good advice can be just as annoying as bad ones and we just want to tell them to get lost. This quote is a perfect warning for people who think they know everything or that they’re right about everything and that everyone should listen and do what they say. This quote is also a warning against using harsh language when someone gives you good advice. Because, while an opinion may be intelligent, it will still sound like an insult if you don’t use gentle language when expressing it.
