Advice Quote by Richard Laymon
“In my vast experience, I've found it always wiser to go along with female advice… First, you make them happy by doing what they tell you. That's the main thing. Let them think they're in control. They love it. Then, if it turns out they were right, everything's cool. If it turns out they were wrong ... then you have the pleasure of basking in the glow of superiority.”
