More quotes by Warren Buffett
Businesses always have opportunities to improve service, product lines, manufacturing techniques, and the like, and obviously these opportunities should be seized. But a business that constantly encounters major change also encounters many chances for major error
Warren Buffett
...I will give you two pieces of advice. Invest as much in yourself as you can you are your own best asset by far. Then follow your passion you want to be really excited to get out of bed every morning.
Warren Buffett
I lose confidence in other people, all kinds of institutions.
Warren Buffett
We have provided capital here with a couple of institutions recently. The Federal government did that in the '30s for the RFC and I think there could well be a proper role for government in that.
Warren Buffett
An investor needs to do very few things right as long as he or she avoids big mistakes.
Warren Buffett
I've never been very fully employed either but just think of what it's like, you know, to go home with a mortgage payment you know and kids and everything else. My dad had that happen to him in the early '30s.

Investing is laying out money now to get more money back in the future.
Warren Buffett
I think you'll have plenty of scrutiny as how the money's invested. I mean, just like the RFC. When the RFC operated, people knew which institutions they were buying preferred stock in. And it worked very well.
Warren Buffett
Interest rates are to asset prices what gravity is to the apple. When there are low interest rates, there is a very low gravitational pull on asset prices.
Warren Buffett
Confidence in markets and in institutions, it's a lot like oxygen. When you have it, you don't even think about it. It's indispensable. You can go years without thinking about it. When it's gone for five minutes, it's the only thing to think about.
Warren Buffett
Well, it may be all right in practice, but it will never work in theory
Warren Buffett
If you are a professional and have confidence, then I would advocate lots of concentration.
Warren Buffett
You're dealing with a lot of silly people in the marketplace it's like a great big casino and everyone else is boozing. If you can stick with Pepsi, you should be OK.
Warren Buffett
I get to do what I like to do every single day of the year.
Warren Buffett
I insist on a lot of time being spent, almost every day, to just sit and think. That is very uncommon in American business. I read and think. So I do more reading and thinking, and make less impulse decisions than most people in business. I do it because I like this kind of life.
Warren Buffett
Never risk what you have and need for what we don't have and don't need.
Warren Buffett
There is no staff. I make all the investment decisions and I do all my own analysis.
Warren Buffett
You should invest in a business that even a fool can run, because someday a fool will.
Warren Buffett
A low-cost index fund is the most sensible equity investment for the great majority of investors. My mentor, Ben Graham, took this position many years ago, and everything I have seen since convinces me of its truth.
Warren Buffett
What the human being is best at doing is interpreting all new information so that their prior conclusions remain intact.
Warren Buffett
