I came across some investment quotes while I was killing time at home/work today. Who ever said the best investors don’t have a sense of humor?

- Wide diversification is only required when investors do not understand what they are doing. - Warren Buffett
- The four most dangerous words in investing are ‘This time it’s different.’ - Sir John Templeton

And finally, if you’re in the market and you don’t have this mantra memorized, you’re probably not doing very well:
