Warren Buffett
Energy deregulation will be the largest transfer of wealth in history.
Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
It is not necessary to do extraordinary things to get extraordinary results.
Warren Buffett
I can do anything I want, basically, as long as it doesn't involve athletic ability, or something like that.
Warren Buffett
The (stock) market is there only as a reference point to see if anybody is offering to do anything foolish. When we invest in stocks, we invest in businesses.
