You know, with your money and my brains, I mean, there's no telling how far we'd go.
Warren Buffett

In the end, alchemy, whether it is metallurgical or financial, fails. A base business can not be transformed into a golden business by tricks of accounting or capital structure.

Part of making good decisions in business is recognizing the poor decisions you've made and why they were poor. I've made lots of mistakes. I'm going to make more. It's the name of the game. You don't want to expect perfection in yourself. You want to strive to do your best. It's too demanding to expect perfection in yourself.
Warren Buffett
Image
Like most trends, at the beginning it's driven by fundamentals, at some point speculation takes over. What the wise man does in the beginning, the fool does in the end.
Warren Buffett
Image
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good results.
Warren Buffett
Image
The single most important decision in evaluating a business is pricing power.
Warren Buffett

AIG would be doing fine today. It was one of the ten largest companies in the United States in terms of market value, over 200 billion, the most respected insurer and everything in the world.
Warren Buffett

The important thing is to keep playing, to play against weak opponents and to play for big stakes.
Warren Buffett
