We're operating this planet like a business in liquidation.
Al Gore

We bought a doomed textile mill [Berkshire Hathaway] and a California S&L [Savings & Loan Wesco] just before a calamity. Both were bought at a discount to liquidation value.
Charlie Munger

It would've cost less, and left the previous owners with nothing, to go into liquidation. But it would also be humiliating for Celtic. So we paid all the bills. Celtic means the same to me as it does to other fans. I identify with the club and wish to be proud of it.

We should all be obliged to appear before a board every five years and justify our existence... on pain of liquidation.
George Bernard Shaw
Image
... the age of simulation thus begins with a liquidation of all referentials - worse: by their artificial resurrection in systems of signs, a more ductile material than meaning... It is no longer a question of imitation, nor of reduplication, nor even of parody. It is rather a question of substituting signs of the real for the real itself.

The Left Opposition declared that the new tempo of industrialization were above our forces, and that the liquidation of the kulaks as a class in the course of three years was a fantastic task, if one wishes to say so, we find ourselves this time less radical than the Stalinists.
Leon Trotsky

How is it that we have created an economic system that tells us it is cheaper to destroy the earth and exhaust its people than to nurture them both? Is it rational to have an pricing system which discounts the future and sells off the past? How did we create an economic system that confused capital liquidation with income?
Paul Hawken
Image
The difference between the price we pay for a stock and its liquidation value gives us a margin of safety. This kind of investing is one of the most effective ways of achieving good long term results.
Peter Cundill

To give money to a sufferer is only a come-off. It is only a postponement of the real payment, a bribe paid for silence, a creditsystem in which a paper promise to pay answers for the time instead of liquidation. We owe to man higher succors than food and fire. We owe to man.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
There's an 'Everything must go!' emotional liquidation feel to the end of your twenties, isn't there? What will happen if we turn thirty and we're not 'ready?' You don't feel entirely settled in any aspect of your life, even if you are on paper.

Jazz is the false liquidation of art - instead of utopia becoming reality it disappears from the picture.
Theodor Adorno
Image
Any onset of increased investor caution elevates risk premiums and, as a consequence, lowers asset values and promotes the liquidation of the debt that supported higher asset prices, ... This is the reason that history has not dealt kindly with the aftermath of protracted periods of low risk premiums.
Alan Greenspan
Image
...the incontrovertible evidence is that Hitler ordered on November 30, 1941, that there was to be 'no liquidation of the Jews.'
David Irving
Image
We still have many shortcomings and failures to fulfill the Party's demands, especially as regards the liquidation in some of our people of survivals of the accursed past in consciousness and conduct and the fulfillment of the demands of our Soviet ethics and military discipline.
Filipp Golikov
Image
There is something fundamentally wrong in treating the Earth as if it were a business in liquidation.
Herman E. Daly
Image
The world of finance is a mysterious world in which, incredible as the fact may appear, evaporation precedes liquidation.

Men are fighting one another because they are convinced that the extermination and liquidation of adversaries is the only means of promoting their own well-being.
Ludwig von Mises
Image
We do liquidation analysis and liquidation analysis only.
Peter Cundill
Image
I try to keep in mind Oscar Wilde's comment that saints always have a past and sinners always have a future, so no investment should be ruled out simply on the basis of past history. We focus on liquidation analysis and liquidation analysis alone.
Peter Cundill
Image
When a stock is selling at a discount to liquidation value per share, a near rock-bottom appraisal, it is frequently an attractive investment.
Seth Klarman
Image
In the age of the individual's liquidation, the question of individuality must be raised anew.
Theodor Adorno
