Memorable Quotes from the Book “The game of speculation is the most uniformly fascinating game in the world. But it is not a game for the stupid, the mentally lazy, the man of inferior emotional balance, or the get-rich-quick adventurer.”

Translation (Sinhala):
“පූර්ණයෙන්ම එකසීමෙන් ආකර්ෂණීය ක්‍රීඩාව පූර්ණ විලාසිතාවයි. නමුත් එය ඩොල් සෙල්ලම, මනෝසික විලාසිකතාව හෝ වේගයෙන් කෝටිපතියෙක් වෙනුවට ක්‍රීඩාවක් නොවේ.”

Translation (Tamil):
“சந்தை ஊக விளையாட்டு மிகவும் ஈர்க்கக்கூடியது. ஆனால் இது அறிவற்றவர்களுக்கு அல்லது உடனடி பணம் பெற்றுவிட விரும்புவோருக்கு அல்ல.”

“There is only one side to the stock market; and it is not the bull side or the bear side, but the right side.”
