substitute for thought.
Warren Buffett
Beware of geeks bearing
formulas.
Warren Buffett
Chains of habit are too
light to be felt until they
are too heavy to be
broken.
Warren Buffett
Derivatives are financial
weapons of mass
destruction.
Warren Buffett
I always knew I was going
to be rich. I don't think I
ever doubted it for a
minute.
Warren Buffett
I am quite serious when I
say that I do not believe
there are, on the whole
earth besides, so many
intensified bores as in these
United States. No man can
form an adequate idea of
the real meaning of the
word, without coming here.
Warren Buffett
I buy expensive suits. They
just look cheap on me.
Warren Buffett
I don't look to jump over
7-foot bars: I look around
for 1-foot bars that I can
step over.
Warren Buffett
I never attempt to make
money on the stock
market. I buy on the
assumption that they could
close the market the next
day and not reopen it for
five years.
Warren Buffett
If a business does well, the
stock eventually follows.
Warren Buffett
If past history was all there
was to the game, the
richest people would be
librarians.
Warren Buffett
In the business world, the
rearview mirror is always
clearer than the
windshield.
Warren Buffett
It takes 20 years to build a
reputation and five
minutes to ruin it. If you
think about that, you'll do
things differently.
Warren Buffett
It's better to hang out with
people better than you.
Pick out associates whose
behavior is better than
yours and you'll drift in
that direction.
Warren Buffett
It's far better to buy a
wonderful company at a
fair price than a fair
company at a wonderful
price.
Warren Buffett
Let blockheads read what
blockheads wrote.
Warren Buffett
Look at market
fluctuations as your friend
rather than your enemy;
profit from folly rather
than participate in it.
Warren Buffett
Of the billionaires I have
known, money just brings
out the basic traits in them.
If they were jerks before
they had money, they are
simply jerks with a billion
dollars.
Warren Buffett
Only buy something that
you'd be perfectly happy to
hold if the market shut
down for 10 years.
Warren Buffett
Only when the tide goes
out do you discover who's
been swimming naked.
Warren Buffett
Our favorite holding period
is forever.
Warren Buffett
Price is what you pay. Value
is what you get.
Warren Buffett
Risk comes from not
knowing what you're doing.
Warren Buffett
Risk is a part of God's
game, alike for men and
nations.
Warren Buffett
Rule No.1: Never lose
money. Rule No.2: Never
forget rule No.1.
Warren Buffett
Should you find yourself in
a chronically leaking boat,
energy devoted to
changing vessels is likely to
be more productive than
energy devoted to patching
leaks.
Warren Buffett
Someone's sitting in the
shade today because
someone planted a tree a
long time ago.
Warren Buffett
The business schools
reward difficult complex
behavior more than simple
behavior, but simple
behavior is more effective.
Warren Buffett
The first rule is not to lose.
The second rule is not to
forget the first rule.
Warren Buffett
The investor of today does
not profit from yesterday's
growth.
Warren Buffett
The only time to buy these
is on a day with no "y" in it.
Warren Buffett
The smarter the journalists
are, the better off society
is. For to a degree, people
read the press to inform
themselves-and the better
the teacher, the better the
student body.
Warren Buffett
There seems to be some
perverse human
characteristic that likes to
make easy things difficult.
Warren Buffett
Time is the friend of the
wonderful company, the
enemy of the mediocre.
Warren Buffett
Value is what you get.
Warren Buffett
Wall Street is the only
place that people ride to in
a Rolls Royce to get advice
from those who take the
subway.
Warren Buffett
We believe that according
the name 'investors' to
institutions that trade
actively is like calling
someone who repeatedly
engages in one-night
stands a 'romantic.'
Warren Buffett
We enjoy the process far
more than the proceeds.
Warren Buffett
We simply attempt to be
fearful when others are
greedy and to be greedy
only when others are
fearful.
Warren Buffett
When a management with
a reputation for brilliance
tackles a business with a
reputation for bad
economics, it is the
reputation of the business
that remains intact.
Warren Buffet
When you combine
ignorance and leverage,
you get some pretty
interesting results.
Warren Buffett
Why not invest your assets
in the companies you really
like? As Mae West said,
"Too much of a good thing
can be wonderful".
Warren Buffett
Wide diversification is only
required when investors do
not understand what they
are doing.
Warren Buffett
You do things when the
opportunities come along.
I've had periods in my life
when I've had a bundle of
ideas come along, and I've
had long dry spells. If I get
an idea next week, I'll do
something. If not, I won't
do a damn thing.
Warren Buffett
You only have to do a very
few things right in your life
so long as you don't do too
many things wrong.
Warren Buffett
Your premium brand had
better be delivering
something special, or it's
not going to get the
business.
Warren Buffett
