This is a question Advice from Old People

Sometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.

Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.

Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

This is a QotW answer bindun, but my granddad said it too...
He told me that he'd once seen a gravestone, on which was emblazoned the legend:

"Wherever you go,
Whererever you be,
Always let your wind go free -
For keeping it in was the death of me."

I have followed this sage advice to the letter, to the extent that no one will sit near me at work, my missus sleeps in a gas mask and all of my y-fronts have holes at the back as well as the front.
