One characteristic that I have observed about the timing of all good traders is that they never try to squeeze out the last point in a stock.

one of the greatest deterrents to successful investing is the three-letter word ego.

I do believe I can forgive almost any shortcoming a person may have except lack of enthusiasm.

There is no such thing as a future decision. There are only present decisions that affect the future.

Rid yourself of the old myth, if it has been plaguing you, that money is not important. It is important - vitally important! It is just as important as the food it buys, the shelter it provides, the doctor bills it pays, and the education it helps to procure.

The person who takes no chances generally must take whatever is left over after others have finished choosing. Overcaution is as bad, if not worse, than lack of caution. Both should be avoided. Life will always contain an element of chance. Not to win is not a sin. But not to try is a tragedy.

The most important ingredient for success in the stock market is a sharp sense of timing.
