I know from experience that nobody can give me a tip or a series of tips that will make more money for me than my own judgment.

Don't take action with a trade until the market, itself, confirms your opinion. Being a little late in a trade is insurance that your opinion is correct. In other words, don't be an impatient trader.

I have always played a lone hand. It is the way my mind works. I have to do my own seeing and my own thinking. But I can tell you that after the market began to go my way I felt for the first time in my life that I had allies - the strongest and truest in the world: underlying conditions. They were helping me with all their might.

I was utterly free of speculative prejudices. The bear side doesn't appeal to me any more than the bull side, or vice versa. My one steadfast prejudice is against being wrong.

It isn't as important to buy as cheap as possible as it is to buy at the right time.

The market does not beat them. They beat themselves, because though they have brains they cannot sit tight.
