More quotes by Warren Buffett
I happen to have a talent for allocating capital. But my ability to use that talent is completely dependent on the society I was born into. If I'd been born into a tribe of hunters, this talent of mine would be pretty worthless. I can't run very fast. I'm not particularly strong. I'd probably end up as some wild animal's dinner.
Warren Buffett
The truth is that I've got all my net worth safely in Berkshire and I will never sell a share so there is no one more concerned about what happens after my death than I am.
Warren Buffett
Very successful people say no to almost everything.
Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
Time is the friend of the wonderful company, the enemy of the mediocre.
Warren Buffett
If I were the treasury secretary or head of the Fed, you know, I would try to scare the hell the out of the private sector and say, you better save this because you're going down with the ship.
Warren Buffett
The only way to be loved is to be loveable, which really irritates me.
Warren Buffett
In business, I look for economic castles protected by unbreachable 'moats'.
Warren Buffett
A market downturn, doesn't bother us. For us and our long term investors, it is an opportunity to increase our ownership of great companies with great management at good prices. Only for short term investors and market timers is a correction not an opportunity.
Warren Buffett
When we went crazy, and we did go crazy on residential real estate, it set things in motion that just - the dominoes started toppling.
Warren Buffett
When you combine ignorance and leverage, you get some pretty interesting results.
Warren Buffett
We've got more productive capacity now than we ever have.
Warren Buffett
The range of derivatives contracts is limited only by the imagination of man (or sometimes, so it seems, madmen). Say you want to write a contract speculating on the number of twins to be born in Nebraska in 2020. No problem-at a price, you will easily find an obliging counterparty.
Warren Buffett
In investing, just as in baseball, to put runs on the scoreboard, one must watch the playing field, not the scoreboard.
Warren Buffett
The most important thing in terms of your circle of competence is not how large the area of it is, but how well you've defined the perimeter.
Warren Buffett
