Speculation Quotes

For a long time it has been known that the first systems of representations with which men have pictured to themselves the world and themselves were of religious origin.

The revelation of the secret of water will put an end to all manner of speculation or expediency and their excrescences, to which belong war, hatred, impatience and discord of every kind. The thorough study of water therefore signifies the end of monopolies, the end of all domination in the truest sense of the word and the start of a socialism arising from the development of individualism in its most perfect form Picture Quote #1

It takes a man a long time to learn all the lessons of all of his mistakes. They say there are two sides to everything. But there is only one side to the stock market; and it is not the bull side or the bear side, but the right side. It took me longer to get that general principle fixed firmly in my mind than it did most of the more technical phases of the game of stock speculation Picture Quote #1

The principles of successful stock speculation are based on the supposition that people will continue in the future to make the mistakes that they have made in the past Picture Quote #1

I need scarcely say that the beginning and maintenance of life on earth is absolutely and infinitely beyond the range of all sound speculation in dynamical science. The only contribution of dynamics to theoretical biology is absolute negation of automatic commencement or automatic maintenance of life Picture Quote #1

There is no more disastrous mania, no more dangerous whim, than the speculation over roads not taken Picture Quote #1

The single most effective way to get rid of rumor and speculation is to be transparent Picture Quote #1

I struggle with deciding when to answer or ignore the constant speculation about my private life, because I feel like that doesn’t belong to anybody but me Picture Quote #1

Mathematics is ordinarily considered as producing precise and dependable results; but in the stock market the more elaborate and abstruse the mathematics the more uncertain and speculative are the conclusions we draw there from. Whenever calculus is brought in, or higher algebra, you could take it as a warning that the operator was trying to substitute theory for experience, and usually also to give to speculation the deceptive guise of investment Picture Quote #1

Part of my attraction to ancient art is that there is an element of risk, of speculation Picture Quote #1

Mystery is an inescapable ingredient of mathematics. Mathematics is full of unanswered questions, which far outnumber known theorems and results. It’s the nature of mathematics to pose more problems than it can solve. Indeed, mathematics itself may be built on small islands of truth comprising the pieces of mathematics that can be validated by relatively short proofs. All else is speculation Picture Quote #1

The only way to know something absolutely is to experience it for yourself; anything less is theory, speculation, and belief Picture Quote #1

We are continually buying something that we never get from a man that never had it Picture Quote #1

The imagination of a eunuch dwells more and longer upon the material of love than that of man or woman... supplying, so far as he can, by speculation, the place of pleasures he can no longer enjoy Picture Quote #1

In love as in speculation there is much filth; in love also, people think only of their own gratification; yet without love there would be no life, and the world would come to an end Picture Quote #1

While I am flattered about the speculation of being enticed out of retirement, I’m happy with life as a bad golfer! Picture Quote #1

Scientists do what writers do. They also live with an active interiority, only the ongoing speculation in their heads is about relations in the physical world rather than the psychological one Picture Quote #1

There is scarcely an instance of a man who has made a fortune by speculation and kept it Picture Quote #1
