"You can only do one thing of monetary value once you own a stock share: Sell it to the next idiot."
Dividens explicitly give the owners of stock a slice of yearly profits.

Price swings of the stock will usually greatly eclipse the dividend. Over long periods of time, however, dividends, when reinvested, do have a great effect.
