And then, every time I didn't see her, there was a fall involved. I thought about dancing on the fifth-floor ledge outside out apartment. Every train she wasn't on felt something like hitting the pavement from five floors up. So maybe my father was right about that. Maybe happiness and excitement really are dangerous things. ↗

Investing should be more like watching paint dry or watching grass grow. If you want excitement, take $800 and go to Las Vegas. ↗

The celebration... you cannot practice it or anything. It's a moment when the excitement of your goal make you react to the moment. ↗
