More quotes by Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
It's never paid to bet against America. We come through things, but its not always a smooth ride.
Warren Buffett
I would say it's more important who the treasury secretary is than who the vice president is. If you want to have a debate here, I'd like a debate between potential treasury secretaries than the vice presidential debate.
Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
I really like my life. I've arranged my life so that I can do what I want.
Warren Buffett
I don't need 15 houses. Owning real estate doesn't mean much to me. I don't like to think about things like that. I don't need 12 boats, or even the world's largest boat with a crew of 80. I'd have to take care of them, to worry about them. I get a lot more fun out of life without all the bells and whistles.
Warren Buffett
I look at everything. That's my job. I really do, every day. I think about everything.
Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
It's a big mistake to try and mislead people. They will turn around.
Warren Buffett
Other guys read Playboy. I read annual reports.
Warren Buffett
Investors making purchases in an overheated market need to recognize that it may often take an extended period for the value of even an outstanding company to catch up with the price they paid.
Warren Buffett
Too often, executive compensation in the U.S. is ridiculously out of line with performance. That won't change, moreover, because the deck is stacked against investors when it comes to the CEO's pay.
Warren Buffett
It's not debt per say that overwhelms an individual corporation or country. Rather it is a continuous increase in debt in relation to income that causes trouble.
Warren Buffett
One’s objective should be to get it right, get it quick, get it out and get it over. Your problem won’t improve with age.
Warren Buffett
I mean, if Pearl Harbor came along, you could have said the planning was wrong by the military ahead of time or maybe the battleships shouldn't have all been in the harbor and all that kind of thing.
