Quotes·Quotations by Jesse Livermore

Investor

¶ All through time, people have basically acted and reacted the same way in the market as a result of: greed, fear, ignorance, and hope. That is why the numerical formations and patterns recur on a constant basis.

Speculation

¶ 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 person of inferior emotional balance, or the get-rich-quick adventurer. They will die poor.

Jesse Katsopolis (Full House)

Jesse Katsopolis from Full House

Jesse (née Hermes) Katsopolis (portrayed by John Stamos) (last name in season one was Cochran, but was changed reportedly due to John Stamos wanting his character to better reflect his Greek heritage) is Danny's brother-in-law, Pam's younger brother; as well as husband to Rebecca Donaldson and father to twins Nicky and Alex. He did not like his birth name, 'Hermes', so when he was young, he changed his name to Jesse, thinking that one had to have a 'cool name' to be in the in-crowd. Jesse's character was actually named after Elvis Presley's twin brother, Jesse, who died at birth. In contrast with Danny, Jesse is portrayed as being irresponsible most of the time, but is occasionally serious when he needs to be (such as when he discovers that one of Stephanie's classmates is a child abuse victim in the episode "Silence is Not Golden" [6.17]). Jesse is revealed as a high school dropout, though in an earlier plot about a high school reunion, he mentions not wearing his cap to his graduation because he didn't want to mess up his hair. Jesse first moves into the house with virtually no experience in taking care of young children or babies, but starts to learn the ropes. In the first season, Jesse works for his father Nick's exterminating business before leaving to pursue work in advertising, frequently working with Joey. He later works with Joey as co-hosts of an afternoon show called The Rush Hour Renegades. Further along in the series, Jesse becomes the new owner of The Smash Club. Although he was shown to be a sports fan as well as a good player in the earlier seasons, it is revealed in later seasons that Jesse hated all sports (especially basketball) and was a poor player. Jesse's main passion is music, and struggles to "hit it big" with his band, Jesse and the Rippers (in the earlier part of the series). However, his increasing responsibilities to his family, radio job, and as restaurateur, lead his band members to discharge him as frontman (in season eight's premiere "Comet's Excellent Adventure"), which subsequently leads him to start a new band, "Hot Daddy and the Monkey Puppets". He is also obsessed with his hair and Elvis Presley. His best known phrase is "Have mercy!"

@ "And so, all the night-tide, I lay down by the side. Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride. In the sepulchre there by the sea. In her tomb by the sounding sea." Edgar Allan Poe [Criminal Minds 04.14 Cold Comfort]

¶ I once dated a guy who washed his car more than he washed his hair. [Criminal Minds 04.23 Roadkill]

@ The human voice can never reach the distance that is covered by the still, small voice of conscience." Mahatma Gandhi [Criminal Minds 04.23 Roadkill]

@ "A family is a place where minds come in contact with one another. If these minds love one another, the home will be as beautiful as a flower garden. But if these minds get out of harmony with one another, it is like a storm that plays havoc with the garden." The Buddha [Criminal Minds 06.01 The Longest Night]

¶ Jean Racine said, "A tragedy need not have blood and death; it's enough that it all be filled with that majestic sadness that is the pleasure of tragedy." [Criminal Minds 06.02 JJ]

@ I'm thankful for my years spent with this family, for everything we shared, every chance we had to grow. I'll take the best of them with me and lead by their example wherever I go. A friend told me to be honest with you, so here it goes: this isn't what I want, but I'll take the high road. Maybe it's because I look at everything as a lesson or because I don't want to walk around angry. Or maybe it's because I finally understand. There are things we don't want to happen but have to accept; things we don't want to know but have to learn; and people we can't live without but have to let go. [Criminal Minds 06.02 JJ]

¶ JJ: Queen Elizabeth I said, "The past cannot be cured." [Criminal Minds 7.1 It Takes a Village]
