Pearls from The Book of Investing Wisdom.

"A group of lemmings looks like a pack of individualists compared with Wall Street when it gets a concept in its teeth."–Warren Buffett.

"A great patients′ drug is one that cures an affliction once and for all, but a great investor′s drug is one that the patient has to keep buying."–Peter Lynch.

"For those investors infested with quarterly measurements, a year can be the long run and five years is just about the outer limit."–Peter L. Bernstein.

"More money is probably lost by people who attempt to invest their money conservatively and sanely, but ignorantly, than is lost by those who enter into frank speculations."–John Moody
