The obsession with instant gratification blinds us from our long-term potential.

Mike Dooley

Being captive to quarterly earnings isn't consistent with long-term value creation. This pressure and the short term focus of equity markets make it difficult for a public company to invest for long-term success, and tend to force company leaders to sacrifice long-term results to protect current earnings.

Charles Koch

Instant gratification takes too long.

Carrie Fisher

The finance world in general is very, very complicated and there are so many different things that need to be evaluated, but I think at the end of the day, the most important thing is how you want to invest your money - if you want to be a short-term, mid-term or long-term investor.

Danilo Gallinari

Instant gratification in photography is not something that I need or desire. I find that the long, slow journey to the final print captivates me far more.

Michael Kenna

I invest in things for the long term and have a long horizon and the flexibility.

Jerry Yang

Giving up on our long-term goals for immediate gratification, my friends, is procrastination.

Dan Ariely

You can't invest in natural gas on a daily basis. It's too volatile. But if you think of natural gas as a long-term holding, then you push your profit horizon out. A long-term time horizon would be at least two years.

T. Boone Pickens
