Best quotes for the week

These are quotes taken from the financial philosopher. A good blog on deep thoughts about markets. The questions are always the same. Why is it so hard to change and break old habits?

Kent Thune, “If one wishes to be wise, however, one will acknowledge one’s own ignorance, observe the herd from a distance, and perhaps shrug in amusement.”

"Faced with the choice between changing one's mind and proving there is no need to do so, almost everyone gets busy on the proof." ~ John Kenneth Galbraith
'I have done that', says my memory. 'I cannot have done that', says my pride, and remains inexorable. Eventually--memory yields. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
"Wall Street never changes, the pockets change, the suckers change, the stocks change, but Wall Street never changes, because human nature never changes." ~ Jesse Livermore
"Not choice, but habit rules the unreflecting herd." ~ William Wordsworth
