More quotes by Warren Buffett
Larger sums may be an advantage at some cases and a disadvantage at others.
Warren Buffett
If, when making a stock investment, you're not considering holding it at least ten years, don't waste more than ten minutes considering it.
Warren Buffett
You get what I call the natural progression, the three Is. The innovators, the imitators, and the idiots.
Warren Buffett
Lethargy, bordering on sloth should remain the cornerstone of an investment style.
Warren Buffett
A home is one of the most important assets that most people will ever buy. Homes are also where memories are made and you want to work with someone you can trust.
Warren Buffett
In business, I look for economic castles protected by unbreachable 'moats'.
Warren Buffett

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.
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
OUR leaders have asked for “shared sacrifice.” But when they did the asking, they spared me. I checked with my mega-rich friends to learn what pain they were expecting. They, too, were left untouched.
Warren Buffett
I really like my life. I've arranged my life so that I can do what I want.
Warren Buffett
I think confidence will come back.
Warren Buffett
I don't have my diploma from the University of Nebraska hanging on my office wall, and I don't have my diploma from Columbia up there either-but I do have my Dale Carnegie graduation certificate proudly displayed.
Warren Buffett
Possessing a powerful worldwide brand is essential for sustained success.
Warren Buffett
We also believe candour benefits us as managers. The CEO who misleads often in public eventually misleads himself in private.
Warren Buffett
We've long felt that the only value of stock forecasters is to make fortune tellers look good. Even now, Charlie and I continue to believe that short-term market forecasts are poison and should be kept locked up in a safe place, away from children and also from grown-ups who behave in the market like children.
Warren Buffett
When a management with reputation for brilliance gets hooked up with a business with a reputation for bad economics, it's the reputation of the business that remains intact.
