More quotes by Warren Buffett
The same things happen to quite an extent around the globe. I mean, the European banks were doing what the American banks were.
Warren Buffett
In the great majority of cases we simply do not know enough about the industry or company to come to sensible judgments-in that situation we pass.
Warren Buffett
Turnarounds seldom turn.
Warren Buffett
Intrinsic value can be defined simply: It is the discounted value of the cash that can be taken out of a business during its remaining life.
Warren Buffett
Money will always flow toward opportunity, and there is an abundance of that in America.
Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
I happen to have a talent for allocating capital. But my ability to use that talent is completely dependent on the society I was born into. If I'd been born into a tribe of hunters, this talent of mine would be pretty worthless. I can't run very fast. I'm not particularly strong. I'd probably end up as some wild animal's dinner.
Warren Buffett
America should stand for more than just wealth.
Warren Buffett
If you want to shoot rare, fast-moving elephants, you should always carry a loaded gun.
Warren Buffett
You should invest like a Catholic marries: for life.
Warren Buffett
I've often felt there might be more to be gained by studying business failures than business successes.
Warren Buffett
There are 309 million people out there that are trying to improve their lot in life. And we've got a system that allows them to do it.
Warren Buffett
In other words, the percentage change in book value in any given year is likely to be reasonably close to that year's change in intrinsic value.
Warren Buffett
Managers that always promise to 'make the numbers' will at some point be tempted to make up the numbers.
Warren Buffett
Money will not change how healthy you are or how many people love you.
