More quotes by Bernard Baruch
We can't cross that bridge until we come to it, but I always like to lay down a pontoon ahead of time.
Bernard Baruch
I am interested in physical medicine because my father was. I am interested in medical research because I believe in it. I am interested in arthritis because I have it.
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
Information cannot serve as an effective substitute for thinking.
Bernard Baruch
Although the shooting war is over, we are in the midst of a cold war which is getting warmer.
Bernard Baruch
When beggars and shoeshine boys, barbers and beauticians can tell you how to get rich it is time to remind yourself that there is no more dangerous illusion than the belief that one can get something for nothing.
Bernard Baruch
A man can't retire his experience.
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
The art of living lies less in eliminating our troubles than in growing with them.
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 stock market is people.
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
There are no such things as incurables. There are only things for which man has not found a cure.
Bernard Baruch
We are living in a highly organized state of socialism. The state is all the individual is of importance only as he contributes to the welfare of the state. His property is only his as the state does not need it. He must hold his life and his possessions at the call of the state.
Bernard Baruch
Making a success of the job at hand is the best step toward the kind you want.
Bernard Baruch
I get the facts, I study them patiently, I apply imagination.
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
Whatever you do, do it with all your heart and soul.
Bernard Baruch
If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Bernard Baruch
