Warren Buffett
If the world couldn't see your results, would you rather be thought of as the world's greatest investor but in reality have the world's worst record? Or be thought of as the world's worst investor when you were actually the best?
Warren Buffett
It is madness to risk losing what you need in pursuing what you simply desire.
Warren Buffett
Investment ideas, like women are often more exciting than punctual.
Warren Buffett
Always associate yourself with people who are better than you.
Warren Buffett
You’ve gotta keep control of your time, and you can’t unless you say no. You can’t let people set your agenda in life.
Warren Buffett
If you buy things you do not need, soon you will have to sell things you need.
Warren Buffett
We will reject interesting opportunities rather than over-leverage our balance sheet.
Warren Buffett
I am not in the business of predicting general stock market of business fluctuations. If you think I can do this, or think it is essential to an investment program, you should not be in the partnership.
Warren Buffett
That which is not worth doing at all is not worth doing well.
