More quotes by Bernard Baruch
You can't repeal human nature by an Act of Congress.
Bernard Baruch
Learn to take losses quickly and cleanly. There is something about inside information which seems to paralyze a man's reasoning powers. Beware of barbers, beauticians, waiters - or anyone - bringing gifts of 'inside' information or tips. Don't try to be a jack of all investment. Stick to the field you know best.
Bernard Baruch
The essence of any plan for financing old age is saving-to put aside some part of today's earnings for the future. Anything that saps the value of savings-and inflation is the worst single threat-is the enemy of the aged and of those who expect to grow old.
Bernard Baruch
Never play tips from insiders. They can't see the forest for the trees.
Bernard Baruch
Now is always the hardest time to invest.
Bernard Baruch
I never lost money by turning a profit.
Bernard Baruch
We grow neither better or worse as we get old, but more like ourselves.
Bernard Baruch
Only as you do know yourself can your brain serve you as a sharp and efficient tool. Know your own failings, passions, and prejudices so you can separate them from what you see.
Bernard Baruch
A man can't retire his experience.
Bernard Baruch
Even when we know what is right, too often we fail to act. More often we grab greedily for the day, letting tomorrow bring what it will, putting off the unpleasant and unpopular.
Bernard Baruch
Old books that have ceased to be of service should no more be abandoned than should old friends who have ceased to give pleasure.
Bernard Baruch
If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Bernard Baruch
Never pay the slightest attention to what a company president ever says about his stock.
Bernard Baruch
One of the secrets of a long and fruitful life is to forgive everybody everything everynight before you go to bed.
Bernard Baruch
Most of the successful people I know mostly listen, not talk.
Bernard Baruch
All economic movements, by their very nature, are motivated by crowd psychology.
Bernard Baruch
Agriculture is the greatest and fundamentally the most important of our industries. The cities are but the branches of the tree of national life, the roots of which go deeply into the land. We all flourish or decline with the farmer.
Bernard Baruch
No man can humiliate me or disturb me. I won't let him.
Bernard Baruch
The art of living lies less in eliminating our troubles than in growing with them.
Bernard Baruch
It is far more difficult... to know when to sell a stock than when to buy.
Bernard Baruch
