More quotes by John Templeton

I never ask if the market is going to go up or down because I don't know, and besides it doesn't matter. I search nation after nation for stocks, asking: 'Where is the one that is lowest-priced in relation to what I believe it's worth?' Forty years of experience have taught me you can make money without ever knowing which way the market is going.

John Templeton
Each of us has a purpose for living beyond our own survival and pleasure. Every individual is like a thread in a beautiful tapestry with a vital contribution to make, not only to the sustenance of life as we know it, but in the creation and development of more beneficial expressions of life.
John Templeton
I focus on spiritual wealth now, and I'm busier, more enthusiastic, and more joyful than I have ever been.
John Templeton
The question is not is there a God, but is there anything else except God? God is everyone and each of us is a little bit.
