  Benjamin Graham (1965). “The Intelligent Investor: A Book of Practical Counsel”, p.179, Prabhat Prakashan

• In the short-run, the market is a voting
  machine - reflecting a voter-registration test that requires only
  money, not intelligence or emotional stability - but in the long-
  run, the market is a weighing machine.

• In other words, the market is not a weighing machine, on which the value of each issue is recorded by an exact and impersonal mechanism, in accordance with its specific qualities. Rather should we say that the market is a voting machine, whereon countless individuals register choices which are the product partly of reason and partly of emotion.
