Warren Buffett
We always live in an uncertain world. What is certain is that the United States will go forward over time.
Warren Buffett
We intend to continue our practice of working only with people whom we like and admire. This policy not only maximizes our chances for good results, it also ensures us an extraordinarily good time.
Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
I always say that in investing you want to buy stock in a company that has a business that's so good that an idiot can run it, because sooner or later one will. We have a country like that.
Warren Buffett
I don't have my diploma from the University of Nebraska hanging on my office wall, and I don't have my diploma from Columbia up there either-but I do have my Dale Carnegie graduation certificate proudly displayed.
Warren Buffett
In the business world, the rearview mirror is always clearer than the windshield.
Warren Buffett
If you hit a hole in one every hole, you wouldn’t play golf for very long.
Warren Buffett
When we own portions of outstanding businesses with outstanding managements, our favorite holding period is forever.
Warren Buffett
The critical investment factor is determining the intrinsic value of a business and paying a fair or bargain price.
Warren Buffett
Exercise humility and restraint.
Warren Buffett
As far as you are concerned, the stock market does not exist. Ignore it.
Warren Buffett
