There is nothing like writing to force you to think and get your thoughts straight.
Warren Buffett
Image
Too often, a vast collection of possessions ends up possessing its owner. The asset I most value, aside from health, is interesting, diverse, and long-standing friends.
Warren Buffett
Image
Confidence is key. You're not going to put your money - you're not going to leave your money with me unless you're confident I'm going to give it back to you.
Warren Buffett
Image
If you get to my age in life and nobody thinks well of you, I don't care how big your bank account is, your life is a disaster.
Warren Buffett
Image
The fact that people will be full of greed, fear, or folly is predictable. The sequence is not predictable.

In some corner of the world they are probably still holding regular meetings of the Flat Earth Society. We derive no comfort because important people, vocal people, or great numbers of people agree with us. Nor do we derive comfort if they don't.
Warren Buffett
Image
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
Image
We also believe candour benefits us as managers. The CEO who misleads often in public eventually misleads himself in private.

In a bull market, one must avoid the error of the preening duck that quacks boastfully after a torrential rainstorm, thinking that its paddling skills have caused it to rise in the world. A right-thinking duck would instead compare its position after the downpour to that of the other ducks on the pond.
Warren Buffett
Image
Only when you combine sound intellect with emotional discipline do you get rational behavior.
Warren Buffett
Image
A pin lies in wait for every bubble and when the two eventually meet, a new wave of investors learns some very old lessons.
Warren Buffett
Image
We believe that according the name 'investors' to institutions that trade actively is like calling someone who repeatedly engages in one-night stands a 'romantic.'
Warren Buffett
Image
Our system works. Over time, people will live better and better. We have a system that unleashes human potential, and now China has a system that unleashes human potential. We will have interruptions. We overshoot and undershoot sometimes, but your kids and grandkids will live better than you. Over time, we move ahead at a pretty damn rapid rate.

Is management rational?
Warren Buffett
Image
I like to go for cinches. I like to shoot fish in a barrel. But I like to do it after the water has run out.
Warren Buffett
Image
When bills come due, only cash is legal tender. Don't leave home without it.
Warren Buffett
Image
Buy stocks like you buy your groceries, not like you buy your perfume.
Warren Buffett
Image
An investor should ordinarily hold a small piece of an outstanding business with the same tenacity that an owner would exhibit if he owned all of that business.
Warren Buffett
Image
I’ve worked in an economy that rewards someone who saves the lives of others on a battlefield with a medal, rewards a great teacher with thank-you notes from parents, but rewards those who can detect the mispricing of securities with sums reaching into the billions.
