Nothing defines human beings better than their willingness to do irrational things in the pursuit of phenomenally unlikely payoffs.
Scott Adams
The world is like a reverse casino. In a casino, if you gamble long enough, you're certainly going to lose. But in the real world, where the
only thing you're gambling is, say, your time or your embarrassment, then the more stuff you do, the more you give luck a chance to find you.
Scott Adams
Only through curiosity can we discover opportunities, and only through gambling can we take advantage of them.
Clarence Birdseye
Never speculate ... if you have savings, invest them in solid securities, lands, or property. The man who gambles upon the
exchanges is in the condition of the man who gambles at the gaming table. He rarely, if ever, makes a permanent success.
Andrew Carnegie
