My love for historical quotes is not something that I developed recently. I was always noting interesting quotes. I find them as one-sentence reminders for correcting one's mentality. Below you may find a small part of my collection as well as some personal comments, expressing personal opinions.

“… opportunities are like buses, there’s always another one coming.”

— Richard Branson

Maybe this quote is my favorite. I was recently reading Tom Hougaard’s book “best loser, wins”, and something that he was repeatedly mentioning is that a trader needs to have the belief that his or her system works, and of course, that the market would always have enough opportunities for every trader so he or she could be profitable.

This quote is a constant reminder that there are always opportunities in the market. Missing one trade here and there won’t be the end of the world.

“Rule #1: Never lose money. Rule #2: Never forget Rule #1.”

— Warren Buffet

Maybe one of the most famous in the finance industry and when it comes to investing in general.
