Quotes

- “All you need is a hell of an aperceptive mass, an IQ of 150, and a dollop of ESP, and you can ignore the headlines, because you anticipated them months ago.”
- “In Freud's crowd, the individuals fasten on an object, substitute it for their ego ideal, and all those with the same ego ideal identify themselves with each other in their ego. Remove the object and you get anxiety.”
- “But the investors who really follow the market, the ones who call up all the time, ninety percent of them really don't care whether they make money or not.”
