Warren Buffett
I don't really think that, as a society, we [americans] want to confer blessings on generation after generation who contribute nothing to society, simply because somebody in the far distant past happened to amass a great sum of wealth.
Warren Buffett
The less prudence with which others conduct their affairs, the greater the prudence with which we should conduct our own affairs.
