Albert Einstein
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
Albert Einstein

Jack Kerouac
“There's nothing wrong with you Ray, your only trouble is you never learned to get out to spots like this, you've let the world drown you in its horseshit and you've been vexed...”
Jack Kerouac, The Dharma Bums

“Никому не следует проживать жизнь, ни разу не испытав здорового, даже скучного уединения в глуши, когда обнаруживаешь, что зависишь исключительно от себя самого, а следовательно, познаешь собственную истинную и скрытую силу. – Научаешься, к примеру, есть, когда голоден, и спать, когда сонен.”
Джек Керуак

“To learn that a man can make foolish plays for no reason whatever was a valuable lesson. It cost me millions to learn that another dangerous enemy to a trader is his susceptibility to the urgings of a magnetic personality when plausibly expressed by a brilliant mind. It has always seemed to me, however, that I might have learned my lesson quite as well if the cost had been only one million. But Fate does not always let you fix the tuition fee. She delivers the educational wallop and presents her own bill, knowing you have to pay it, no matter what the amount may be.”
Jesse Livermore, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator

“I did precisely the wrong thing. The cotton showed me a loss and I kept it. The wheat showed me a profit and I sold it out. Of all the speculative blunders there are few greater than trying to average a losing game. Always sell what shows you a loss and keep what shows you a profit.”
Edwin Lefèvre, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator
