“In the stock market (as in much of life), the beginning of wisdom is admitting your ignorance. One of the many things you cannot know about stocks is exactly when they will up or go down. Over the long term, stocks generally rise at a nice pace. History shows they double in value every seven years or so. But in the short term, stocks are just plain wild. Over periods of days, weeks and months, no one has any idea what they will do. Still, nearly all investors think they are smart enough to divine such short-term movements. This hubris frequently gets them into trouble.” ThinkingKnowsYearsLongStillsIdeasEnoughShowsValuesTermNiceTroubleWeekMovementIgnoranceDivineMonthsPeriodsSmartSevenLong TermPaceInvestorsSeven YearsShort TermAdmittingHubris Author:James K.

“The use of the word royalty, as fee to a proprietor for the exploitation of a work or property, derives from the period when the sovereign assumed title to all wealth of the realm. It was the struggle for freedom from these encroachments of the state that chiefly marked the Nineteenth Century, and established everywhere constitutional regimes of limited authority. In the Twentieth Century, however, we have witnessed a gradual and almost unrestricted movement back to state authoritarianism, primarily in the economic sphere, accompanied by the spread of state monopoly and intervention.” StatesUseWealthStruggleEconomicCenturyMovementPeriodsAuthorityPropertySpreadTitlesRealmsSpheresRegimesExploitationSovereignMonopolyInterventionRoyaltyTwentieth CenturyNineteenth CenturyAuthoritarianismFeesEncroachmentStruggle For Freedom Author:Elgin Groseclose

“Time is the most important factor in determining market movements and by studying past price records you will be able to prove to yourself history does repeat and by knowing the past you can tell the future. There is a definite relation between price and time. By studying time cycles and time periods you will learn why market tops and bottoms are found at certain times, and why resistance levels are so strong at certain times, and prices hold around them. The most money is made when fast moves and extreme fluctuations occur at the end of major cycles.” DoeMadeImportantEndsAblePastMovingCertainFoundStrongLevelsKnowingStudyRecordsMovementPeriodsProveMajorsRelationBottomExtremesResistanceFactorsRepeatsCyclesDefiniteFluctuationTime Periods Author:William Delbert Gann
“Detroit was an exaggeration of what was going on across the country. You could see the divisions, even within the Civil Rights Movement of that period.

“We've just gone through this period of years where the players in the game were at least written about as being a Democratic administration, establishment Republicans, and then the rabble-rousing radicals of the tea party. And it was like a three-way negotiation between them.

“First I might say that when a person, when a man separates from his wife, at the out start it's a physical separation but it's not a psychological separation. He still thinks of her in, in probably warm terms. And, but after the physical separation has taken, existed for a period of time, it becomes a psychological separation as well as physical. And he can then look at her more objectively. My split or separation from the Black Muslim movement at first was only a physical separation, but my heart was still there and it was impossible for me to, for me to look at it objectively.” ThinkingMenFirstsWellsLooksHeartPersonsStillsMightBlackTermTakenWifeImpossibleMovementMy HeartPeriodsWarmSeparationPsychologicalSplits Author:Malcolm X
