Max Keiser

Casinos don't bring business except for the gambling boys

John Warren Kindt

Gambling is entertainment. People go to casinos to be entertained.

Eric Schneiderman

In our most Puritan of society, gambling-like other pleasures-is either taxed, restricted to certain hours, or forbidden altogether. Yet the impulse to gamble remains an eternal aspect of the irrationality of man. It finds outlets in business, war, politics, in the formal overtures of the gambling casinos, and in the less ceremonious exchanges among individuals of differing opinions.

Richard Arnold Epstein

Gambling has a zero-sum economic effect in its market and, like legalizing cocaine, the socio-economic costs of legalizing gambling overwhelm the benefits

This was my first lesson about gambling: if you see somebody winning all the time, he isn't gambling, he's cheating. Later on in life, if I were continuously losing in any gambling situation, I would watch very closely.

Malcolm X

I don't think of my books as being biographies. I never had any interest in doing a book just to write the life of a great man. I had zero interest in that. My interest is in power. How power works.

Robert Caro

If [Donald Trump] is paid zero [taxes], that means zero for troops, zero for vets, zero for schools or health.

Hillary Clinton

A zero itself is nothing, but without a zero you cannot count anything; therefore, a zero is something, yet zero.

Dalai Lama

Most players unfortunately go to the casinos with an attitude that makes it even easier for casinos to psyche them into losing. Most except to lose; therefore, it's not too surprising when they achieve their goal.

Henry Tamburin
