More quotes by Warren Buffett
We look for things I can understand. A lot of businesses I don't understand.
Warren Buffett
There's not many businesses where someone can come in and offer to cut the price in half and somebody doesn't think about shifting. But that's the nature of the ratings business.
Warren Buffett
Mark Zuckerberg will be a hero to many young entrepreneurs 20 years from now. Bill Gates will be a hero to others, and they will look to those [people] like I read books when I was in my teens about Rockefeller or Carnegie.
Warren Buffett
It is madness to risk losing what you need in pursuing what you simply desire.
Warren Buffett
But 300 million Americans, their lending institutions, their government, their media, all believed that house prices were going to go up consistently. And that got billed into a $20 trillion residential home market. Lending was done based on it, and everybody did a lot of foolish things.
Warren Buffett
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
The most important investment you can make is in yourself. Very few people get anything like their potential horsepower translated into the actual horsepower of their output in life. Potential exceeds realization for many people...The best asset is your own self. You can become to an enormous degree the person you want to be.
Warren Buffett
Never invest in a business you can't understand

Warren Buffett
The stock market is a no-called-strike game. You don’t have to swing at everything – you can wait for your pitch.
Warren Buffett
The (stock) market is there only as a reference point to see if anybody is offering to do anything foolish. When we invest in stocks, we invest in businesses.
Warren Buffett
It's easy to identify many investment managers with great recent records. But past results, though important, do not suffice when prospective performance is being judged. How the record has been achieved is crucial.
Warren Buffett
If you do smart things and use leverage and do one wrong thing along the way, it could wipe you out, because anything times zero is zero. But it's reinforcing when the people around you are doing it successfully, you're doing it successfully, and it's a lot like Cinderella at the ball.
Warren Buffett
You will be right, over the course of many transactions, if your hypotheses are correct, your facts are correct, and your reasoning is correct. True conservatism is only possible through knowledge and reason.
Warren Buffett
The best education you can get is investing in yourself, and that doesn't mean college or university.
Warren Buffett
Is management rational?
Warren Buffett
I can't promise results, but I can promise a common destiny.
Warren Buffett
I'll take the deal, whatever you want to do.
