More quotes by Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
By periodically investing in an index fund, the know-nothing investors can actually outperform most investment professionals.
Warren Buffett
Would your reply possibly be this? Well, it all depends on what my tax rate will be on the gain you're saying we're going to make. If the taxes are too high, I would rather leave the money in my savings account, earning a quarter of 1 percent. Only in Grover Norquist's imagination does such a response exist.
Warren Buffett
I think I could make you fifty percent a year on one million dollars. No, I know I could. I guarantee that.
Warren Buffett
Writing a check separates a commitment from a conversation.

Warren Buffett
When you build a bridge, you insist that it can carry 30,000 pounds, but you only drive 10,000-pound trucks across it. And that same principle works in investing.
Warren Buffett
Anything can happen anytime in markets. And no advisor, economist, or TV commentator-and definitely not Charlie nor I-can tell you when chaos will occur. Market forecasters will fill your ear but will never fill your wallet.
Warren Buffett
The most dangerous distractions are the ones you love, but that don’t love you back.
Warren Buffett
You should look at stocks as small pieces of business.
Warren Buffett
How do you beat Bobby Fischer? You play him at any game but chess. I try to stay in games where I have an edge.
Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
You are lucky in life if you have the right heroes. I advise all of you, to the extent you can, to pick out a few heroes
Warren Buffett
Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.
Warren Buffett
I bought a company in the mid-90s called Dexter Shoe and paid $400 million for it. And it went to zero. And I gave about $400 million worth of Berkshire stock, which is probably now worth $400 billion. But I've made lots of dumb decisions. That's part of the game.
Warren Buffett
The American worker is more productive than he's ever been.
Warren Buffett
Forecasts usually tell us more of the forecaster than of the forecast
Warren Buffett
If I taught a class, on my final exam I would take an Internet company and ask, 'How much is this company worth?' Anyone who would answer, I would flunk.
