  2. Those that spend time on proverbs will get crushed by those that don't.

  5. Any line from Wall Street cause that movie is the truth from beginning to end.

    More recent - this exchange from Wolf of Wall Street,

    Mark Hanna: Number one rule of Wall Street. Nobody, I don't care if you're Warren Buffet or if you're Jimmy Buffet, nobody knows if a stock is gonna go up, down, sideways or in fucking circles, least of all stock brokers, right?
    It's all a fugazi. Do you know what fugazi is?

    Jordan Belfort: Fugazi, it's a fake...

    Mark Hanna: Yeah, fugazi, fogazi. It's a wazi, it's a woozi. It's...fairy dust. It doesn't exist, it's never landed, it is no matter, it's not on the elemental charge. It's not fucking real.

    1. Anything can happen.

    2. You don’t need to know what is going to happen next in order to make money.

    3. There is a random distribution between wins and losses for any given set of variables that define an edge.

    4. An edge is nothing more than an indication of a higher probability of one thing happening over another.

    5. Every moment in the market is unique. (Douglas)

    As someone whose biggest hurdle to overcome was actually taking the trades I was supposed to make, I got mine from Yoda:

    Do, or do not. There is no try.
