When the president of the United States goes out at, you know, 8:00 o'clock in the morning and then his own party votes gets him 2 to 1 in the house, you know that somehow a message isn't getting out. It takes real leadership.

Warren Buffett
We really can say no in 10 seconds or so to 90%+ of all the things that come along simply because we have these filters.
Warren Buffett
If you're extremely rich, and you have got children, my theory was, you give them enough so they can do anything, but not enough so they can do nothing.
Warren Buffett
Never give up searching for the job that you’re passionate about. Try to find the job you’d have if you were independently rich. Forget about the pay. When you’re associating with the people that you love, doing what you love, it doesn’t get any better than that.
Warren Buffett
There’s class warfare, all right, but it’s my class, the rich class, that’s making war, and we’re winning.

If you were at Lehman, the same thing happened. If you were at AIG, the shareholders are getting creamed on these things. And those shareholders are not just a bunch of big shots in Wall Street. Those are pension funds, and those are investors all over the country. I wouldn't worry too much about that. Justice won't be perfect on it.
Warren Buffett
We have embraced the 21st century by entering such cutting-edge industries as brick, carpet, insulation and paint. Try to control your excitement.
Warren Buffett
You do things when the opportunities come along. I've had periods in my life when I've had a bundle of ideas come along, and I've had long dry spells. If I get an idea next week, I'll do something. If not, I won't do a damn thing.
Warren Buffett
I know what I want to do and it makes sense to get going.
Warren Buffett
I do not believe in inheriting your position in society based on which womb you come from... I think a rich person should leave his children enough so they can do anything, but not enough so they can do nothing.
Warren Buffett
A pin lies in wait for every bubble and when the two eventually meet, a new wave of investors learns some very old lessons.
Warren Buffett
I've often felt there might be more to be gained by studying business failures than business successes.
Warren Buffett
Derivatives are financial weapons of mass destruction.
Warren Buffett
Tell me your heroes and I'll tell you how your life will end up
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
If I subscribed to the efficient market theory I would still be delivering papers
Warren Buffett
The secret to happiness is having low expectations.
Warren Buffett
Our future rates of gain will fall far short of those achieved in the past. Berkshire's capital base is now simply too large to allow us to earn truly outsized returns. If you believe otherwise, you should consider a career in sales but avoid one in mathematics.
