Investing is a probabilistic business. Every once in a while, it's sort of like you're throwing six-sided dice, and anything except a one or a two, you're doing well. Statistically speaking, you throw the dice enough times, you're going to throw a one or a two five times in a row, and you're going to look pretty foolish, right?

Whitney Tilson

The life of man is like a game with dice; if you don't get the throw you want, you must show your skill in making the best of the throw you get.

Terence

If we have an atom that is in an excited state and so is going to emit a photon, we cannot say when it will emit the photon. It has a certain amplitude to emit the photon at any time, and we can predict only a probability for emission; we cannot predict the future exactly.

Richard P. Feynman

God Almighty does not throw dice.

Albert Einstein

Who then may trust the dice, at Fortune's throw?

Geoffrey Chaucer

One who doesn't throw the dice can never expect to score a six.

Navjot Singh Sidhu

The God of Battles will throw the dice that decide.

A. J. P. Taylor

A throw of the dice will never abolish chance.

Stephane Mallarme

If you roll dice, you know that the odds are one in six that the dice will come up on a particular side. So you can calculate the risk. But, in the stock market, such computations are bull - you don't even know how many sides the dice have!
