"I do know of these That therefore..." - Quote by William Shakespeare
I do know of these That therefore only are reputed wise For saying nothing.

“Do not waste your time with people who have shown you they really mean no good for you.”
“I always pass on good advice. It is the only thing to do with it. It is never of any use to oneself.”
“This fellow is wise enough to play the fool; And to do that well craves a kind of wit: He must observe their mood on whom he jests, The quality of persons, and the time, And, like the haggard, check at every feather That comes before his eye. This is a practise As full of labour as a wise man's art For folly that he wisely shows is fit; But wise men, folly-fall'n, quite taint their wit.”
