Answer 3

To be wise and old.... you must first be young and stupid

There is no point in there being two fools in the same deal

People who fight fire with fire usually end up with ashes.

Good advice is always certain to be ignored, but that's no reason not to give it.

A word to the wise ain't necessary, it's the stupid ones who need the advice.

Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn't.

One's first step in wisdom is to question everything - and one's last is to come to terms with everything.

"Do-so" is more important than "say-so."

Life is rather like a tin of sardines - we're all of us looking for the key.
Love is blind, but marriage restores its sight.
