Warren Buffett
We really can say no in 10 seconds or so to 90%+ of all the things that come along simply because we have these filters.
Warren Buffett
You have to turn over a lot of rocks to find those little anomalies. You have to find the companies that are off the map - way off the map.
Warren Buffett
So if you are evaluating others (or yourself!) in the investment field, think out some standards - apply them - interpret them.
Warren Buffett
Shares are not mere pieces of paper. They represent part ownership of a business. So, when contemplating an investment, think like a prospective owner.
Warren Buffett
In one way, I'm sympathetic to the institutional reluctance to face the music. I'd give a lot to mark my weight to 'model' rather than to 'market.'
Warren Buffett
Never depend on a single source of income.
Warren Buffett
The active investors will have their returns diminished by a far greater percentage than will their inactive brethren. That means that the passive group - the know-nothings - must win.
