Esoteric

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel Philosopher

"Philosophy is by its nature something esoteric, neither made for the mob nor capable of being prepared for the mob."

Charlie Munger Investor, Businessman

"We try more to profit from always remembering the obvious than from grasping the esoteric."

Warren Buffett Investor, Businessman

"Investors should be skeptical of history-based models. Constructed by a nerdy-sounding priesthood using esoteric terms such as beta, gamma, sigma and the like, these models tend to look impressive. Too often, though, investors forget to examine the assumptions behind the models. Beware of geeks bearing formulas."

Malcolm Gladwell Journalist, Author

"When we become expert in something, our tastes grow more esoteric and complex."
