Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it.
A market is never saturated with a good product, but it is very quickly saturated with a bad one.
You can't learn in school what the world is going to do next year.
There are two fools in this world. One is the millionaire who thinks that by hoarding money he can somehow accumulate real power, and the other is the penniless reformer who thinks that if only he can take the money from one class and give it to another, all the world's ills will be cured only have to know what you want, then forget it, and go about your business. Suddenly, the idea will come through. It was there all the time.
Chop your own wood, and it will warm you twice.
We don't want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker's dam is the history we make today.
The object of living is work, experience, and happiness. There is joy in work. All that money can do is buy us someone else's work in exchange for our own. There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something.
Women do not win formula one races, because they simply are not strong enough to resist the G-forces. In the boardroom, it is different. I believe women are better able to marshal their thoughts than men and because they are less egotistical they make fewer assumptions.
There is no such thing as no chance.
Clearly, this shows that the more practice you have, the more prepared you are if it happens and the more likely you are to know how to react.
Never complain. Never explain.
