More quotes by Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
I asked him what he wanted to do for his career, and he replied that he wanted to go into a particular field, but thought he should work for McKinsey for a few years first to add to his resume. To me that's like saving sex for your old age. It makes no sense.

Stocks are the only thing that people are happy to buy when the price goes up.
Warren Buffett
Never do anything in life if you would be ashamed of seeing it printed on the front page of your hometown newspaper for your friends and family to see.
Warren Buffett
I don't like what's going on with the executive compensation.
Warren Buffett
If you have a great manager, you want to pay him very well.
Warren Buffett
Does the business have a consistent operating history?
Warren Buffett
It irritates the hell out of me but you can't buy love.
Warren Buffett
There’s class warfare, all right, but it’s my class, the rich class, that’s making war, and we’re winning.
Warren Buffett
Risk is a part of God's game, alike for men and nations.
Warren Buffett
