  Jesse Livermore # Stock Market, Different, Fun, Life, World Quotes

  Peter Lynch # Stock Market, Fear, Greed, Loss, Worry Quotes

  Michael Milken # Market, Finance, Economic, Politics Quotes
• You can say on one hand the market is crazy but it's not 1999. People have had their medicine from overexuberance. I find it really interesting that those two businesses, Yahoo! and Google, which are just online advertising businesses, are valued at more than the media behemoths in America.
