Quote of the Day

Standing on the shoulders of giants.

Over a decade of quotes on trading, discipline, patience and mindset that I keep coming back to. Some from market legends, some from philosophers, a few from the trail.

Read one before the open. Then go do the work.

“We must learn to reawaken and keep ourselves awake, not by mechanical aids, but by an infinite expectation of the dawn, which does not forsake us even in our soundest sleep. I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by a conscious endeavour. It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.”
— Henry David Thoreau, Walden
