There are 309 million people out there that are trying to improve their lot in life. And we've got a system that allows them to do it.
Warren Buffett
Interest rates are to asset prices what gravity is to the apple. When there are low interest rates, there is a very low gravitational pull on asset prices.
Warren Buffett
The rest of the world really likes our stuff pretty well. It's just we buy so damn much of what they produce.
Warren Buffett
The only way to get love is to be lovable. It's very irritating if you have a lot of money. You'd like to think you could write a check: I'll buy a million dollars' worth of love. But it doesn't work that way. The more you give love away, the more you get.
Warren Buffett
You should invest like a Catholic marries: for life.
Warren Buffett
You get what I call the natural progression, the three Is. The innovators, the imitators, and the idiots.
Warren Buffett
You should be unconcerned about short-term price action when you own the securities directly, just as you were unconcerned when you owned them indirectly through BPL. I think about them as businesses, not stocks, and if the business does all right over the long term, so will the stock.
Warren Buffett
The power of unconditional love. I mean, there is no power on earth like unconditional love.
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

Warren Buffett
The dominant factors affecting control valuations are earning power (past and prospective) and asset values.
Warren Buffett
People went crazy with tulip bulbs. They went crazy with the South Sea Bubble, they went crazy internet stocks, they went crazy with the uranium stocks back when I was first getting started.
Warren Buffett
SUPPOSE that an investor you admire and trust comes to you with an investment idea. This is a good one, he says enthusiastically. I'm in it, and I think you should be, too.
Warren Buffett
There is no staff. I make all the investment decisions and I do all my own analysis.
Warren Buffett
It's nice to have a lot of money, but you know, you don't want to keep it around forever. I prefer buying things. Otherwise, it's a little like saving sex for your old age.
Warren Buffett
I mean there is no capital requirements to it or anything of the sort. And basically, I said there were possibly financial weapons of mass destruction, and they had them. They destroyed AIG. They certainly contributed to the destruction of Bear Sterns and Lehman. Although Lehman had other problems, too.
Warren Buffett
Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked.
Warren Buffett
Always invest for the long term.
Warren Buffett
You can't help some increase from this point. I don't want any viewer to go away think a magic wand exists in Congress. So they're going to see some more bad news. But if we do this, we're doing the right thing.
Warren Buffett
When people talk about cash being king, it's not king if it just sits there and never does anything.
