More quotes by Warren Buffett
Our approach is very much profiting from lack of change rather than from change.
Warren Buffett
An irresistable footnote: in 1971, pension fund managers invested a record 122% of net funds available in equities - at full prices they couldn't buy enough of them. In 1974, after the bottom had fallen out, they committed a then record low of 21% to stocks.
Warren Buffett
Diversification may preserve wealth, but concentration builds wealth.
Warren Buffett
If you owe money, you can't pay them out. You just pay for everything, you do smart things, you eventually get very rich.
Warren Buffett
Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing.
Warren Buffett
If you were at Lehman, the same thing happened. If you were at AIG, the shareholders are getting creamed on these things. And those shareholders are not just a bunch of big shots in Wall Street. Those are pension funds, and those are investors all over the country. I wouldn't worry too much about that. Justice won't be perfect on it.
Warren Buffett
Equities will do well over time - you just have to avoid getting excited when other people are getting excited.
Warren Buffett
The extraordinary business does not require good management.
Warren Buffett
If the world couldn't see your results, would you rather be thought of as the world's greatest investor but in reality have the world's worst record? Or be thought of as the world's worst investor when you were actually the best?
Warren Buffett
People do, as long as you have markets, you'll have excesses.
Warren Buffett
The best investment you can make, is an investment in yourself... The more you learn, the more you'll earn.
Warren Buffett
Be fearful when there is greed and be greedy when there is fear.
Warren Buffett
If horses had controlled investment decisions, there would have been no auto industry.
Warren Buffett
Outstanding long-term results are produced primarily by avoiding dumb decisions, rather than by making brilliant ones.
Warren Buffett
I mean the truth is, I've never had it so good in terms of taxes. I am paying the lowest tax rate that I've ever paid in my life.
Warren Buffett
It's a lot easier to buy things than it is to sell them.
Warren Buffett
Focus on your customers and lead your people as though their lives depend on your success.
Warren Buffett
What the wise do in the beginning, fools do in the end.
Warren Buffett
Do what you love and work for whom you admire the most, and you've given yourself the best chance in life you can.
Warren Buffett
Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago. The person sitting in the shade now should be grateful for the person who planted and tended that tree. That includes all those benefactors of humanity throughout history that created, invented, financed, produced, maintained and improved all that we enjoy today.
Warren Buffett
