More quotes by Bernard Baruch
If you have made a mistake cut your losses as quickly as possible.
Bernard Baruch
No man should think himself a zero, and think he can do nothing about the state of the world.
Bernard Baruch
The greatest blessing of our democracy is freedom. But in the last analysis, our only freedom is the freedom to discipline ourselves.
Bernard Baruch
To me - old age is always ten years older than I am.
Bernard Baruch
A speculator is a man who observes the future, and acts before it occurs.
Bernard Baruch

Bernard Baruch
Never pay the slightest attention to what a company president ever says about his stock.
Bernard Baruch
A man can't retire his experience.
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
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
All economic movements, by their very nature, are motivated by crowd psychology.
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
Nobody ever lost money taking a profit
Bernard Baruch
Now is always the hardest time to invest.
Bernard Baruch
The art of living lies less in eliminating our troubles than in growing with them.
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
Our problem in money-making or government affairs is how to remain properly venturesome and experimental without making fools of ourselves.
Bernard Baruch
Whatever you do, do it with all your heart and soul.
Bernard Baruch
We did not all come over on the same ship, but we are all in the same boat.
Bernard Baruch
Bears don't live on Park Avenue.
