When forced to choose, I will not trade even a night's sleep for the chance of extra profits.
Warren Buffett

I always invest in companies an idiot could run, because one day one will.

When you listen to tax-cut rhetoric, remember that giving one class of taxpayer a break requires - now or down the line - that an equivalent burden be imposed on other parties. In other words, if I get a break, someone else pays. Government can't deliver a free lunch to the country as a whole. It can however, determine who pays for lunch.

What we learn from history is that people don't learn from history.

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
My friends and I have been coddled long enough by a billionaire-friendly Congress.
Warren Buffett
Image
I would push purchasing power - you push out $1,000 of purchasing to those people, it's going to get - it's going to get spent. And it needs to be spent. They need it. And it should come, to some extent, from guys like me.

Forecasts usually tell us more of the forecaster than of the forecast
Warren Buffett
Image
At Berkshire, I both initiate and monitor every derivatives contract on our books ... If Berkshire ever gets in trouble, it will be my fault. It will not be because of the misjudgments made by a risk committee or chief risk officer.

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.
