More quotes by Warren Buffett
Uncertainty is the friend of the buyer of long term values.
Warren Buffett
Trust is like the air we breathe--when it's present, nobody really notices when it's absent, everybody notices.
Warren Buffett
Somebody's buying these treasury bills at 1/20th of one percent. Consuming about $2 billion a day of goods and services beyond what we're producing. In other words, the rest of the world sends about $2 billion a day net of something.We got to send them something in return, don't we. So we send them little pieces of paper.
Warren Buffett
Just imagine living on 21,000 a year. I mean you have 20 percent of the population doing that. So you don't have to worry about guys like me.
Warren Buffett
If you get to my age in life and nobody thinks well of you, I don't care how big your bank account is, your life is a disaster.
Warren Buffett
I don't need 15 houses. Owning real estate doesn't mean much to me. I don't like to think about things like that. I don't need 12 boats, or even the world's largest boat with a crew of 80. I'd have to take care of them, to worry about them. I get a lot more fun out of life without all the bells and whistles.
Warren Buffett
I think you'll have plenty of scrutiny as how the money's invested. I mean, just like the RFC. When the RFC operated, people knew which institutions they were buying preferred stock in. And it worked very well.
Warren Buffett
The investor of today does not profit from yesterday's growth.
Warren Buffett
It's us fun being a horse when the tractor comes along, or the blacksmith when the car comes along.
Warren Buffett
If I subscribed to the efficient market theory I would still be delivering papers
Warren Buffett
We all make mistakes. If you can't make mistakes, you can't make decisions. I've made a lot bigger mistakes myself.
Warren Buffett
I would say the biggest single cause was we had an incredible residential real estate bubble.
Warren Buffett
Never invest in a business you don't understand.
Warren Buffett
I don't read economic forecasts. I don't read the funny papers.
Warren Buffett
Would your reply possibly be this? Well, it all depends on what my tax rate will be on the gain you're saying we're going to make. If the taxes are too high, I would rather leave the money in my savings account, earning a quarter of 1 percent. Only in Grover Norquist's imagination does such a response exist.
Warren Buffett
We've got a wonderful economic formula in this country.
Warren Buffett
The nature of democracy is such that when there's - there'll be revulsion, obviously, towards - that's never going to happen again.
Warren Buffett
You should invest like a Catholic marries: for life.
Warren Buffett
Our marketable equities tell us by their operating results - not by their daily, or even yearly, price quotations - whether our investments are successful. The market may ignore business success for a while, but eventually will confirm it.
Warren Buffett
Cash never makes us happy, but it's better to have the money burning a hole in Berkshire's pocket than resting comfortably in someone else's.
Warren Buffett
