“The young watch television twenty-four hours a day, they don't read and they rarely listen. This incessant bombardment of images has developed a hypertrophied eye condition that's turning them into a race of mutants. They should pass a law for a total reeducation of the young, making children visit the Galleria Borghese on a daily basis.” ShouldChildrenEyeLawYoungHoursRaceWatchesFourConditionsTelevisionBasesTwentiesIncessantMutants Author:Federico Fellini
“Since I learned the secret and started applying it to my life, my life has truly become magical. I think the kind of life that everybody dreams of is one I live on a day to day basis. I live in a four-and-a-half-million-dollar mansion. I have a wife to die for. I get to vacation in all the fabulous spots of the world. I've climbed mountains. I've explored. I've been on safaris.

“The general systems of money management today require people to pretend to do something they can't do and like something they don't. It's a funny business because on a net basis, the whole investment management business together gives no value added to all buyers combined. That's the way it has to work. Mutual funds charge two percent per year and then brokers switch people between funds, costing another three to four percentage points. The poor guy in the general public is getting a terrible product from the professionals.” PeopleWayGivingYearsTwoWholeTodayTogetherGuyValuesThreePoorFourProductsTerriblePercentBasesManagementInvestmentInvestingFundMutualPercentagesLike SomethingBuyersMoney ManagementGeneral PublicFunny BusinessBrokersMutual FundInvestment Management Author:John C.

“The dismembering of a human being routinely in 30 minutes on an outpatient bases - or any other way - is barbaric.

“In this game, you have to think about making plays, you can't worry about making mistakes. At times, a guy will get thrown out, but in the bigger scheme, the bases we're going to take will far outweigh that occasional misread. And it depends on what you call a mistake. If the outfielder puts the ball right on the money, he's out by a quarter-step and it's a bang-bang play, that's not a mistake. That's baseball. If you're out by four or five steps, it's ugly, it's a misread, but in the big picture, that aggressiveness is going to help us more than the occasional blunder will hurt.” IfsThinkingPlayHelpingBigsGuyGamesHurtMistakeStepsWorryFiveFourDependsBaseballBallsBasesBiggerUglyThrownMaking MistakesQuartersSchemesBangsOccasionalBlundersBig PictureAggressivenessOutfielders Author:Mike Scioscia
