John Maynard Keynes Quotes
It is the long term investor who will in practice come in for the most criticism. For it is the essence of his behaviour that he should be eccentric, unconventional and rash in the eyes of the average opinion.

Worldly wisdom teaches that it is better for reputation to fail conventionally than to succeed unconventionally.
