More quotes by Warren Buffett
The woman that comes in, takes the wastebasket away, she's paying 15.3 or whatever it is on payroll tax alone. I mean it is - I never had it so good.
Warren Buffett
If you have a harem of 40 women, you never get to know any of them very well.

Warren Buffett
The dominant factors affecting control valuations are earning power (past and prospective) and asset values.
Warren Buffett
I made my first investment at age eleven. I was wasting my life up until then.
Warren Buffett
When it's raining gold, reach for a bucket, not a thimble.
Warren Buffett
Our stay-put behavior reflects our view that the stock market serves as a relocation center at which money is moved from the active to the patient.
Warren Buffett
I've argued with the senators and congressmen I've talked to. You don't want to be too little too late. If you buy them at the right price, you may be buying two trillion of face value.
Warren Buffett
The Happiest people DO NOT necessarily have the BEST THINGS. They simply APPRECIATE the things they have.
Warren Buffett
If you lose money for the firm, I will be forgiving. If you lose reputation, I will be ruthless.
Warren Buffett
