The real fortunes in this country have been made by people who have been right about the business they invested in, and not right about the timing of the stock market.

Many stock options in the corporate world have worked in exactly that fashion: they have gained in value simply because management retained earnings, not because it did well with the capital in its hands.

The best way in my view is to just buy a low-cost index fund and keep buying it regularly over time, because you'll be buying into a wonderful industry, which in effect is all of American industry... People ought to sit back and relax and keep accumulating over time.

Buy into a company because you want to own it, not because you want the stock to go up.

Focus on return on equity, not earnings per share.

What's hot today isn't likely...

What's hot today isn't likely to be hot tomorrow. The stock market reverts to fundamental returns over the long run. Don't follow the herd.

It irritates the hell out of me but you can't buy love.

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.

How do you beat Bobby Fischer? You play him at any game but chess. I try to stay in games where I have an edge.

At this point, when treasury bills, seven day treasury bills at 1/20th of one percent, it's not because people want to earn 1/20th of one percent, it's because they trust the fact the treasury will give it back to them next week.

While the poor and middle class fight for us in Afghanistan, and while most Americans struggle to make ends meet, we mega-rich continue to get our extraordinary tax breaks.

You shouldn't own common stocks if a 50 per cent decrease in their value in a short period of time would cause you acute distress.

Warren Buffett 877 quotes

I won't close down a business...

I won't close down a business of subnormal profitability merely to add a fraction of a point to our corporate returns. I also feel it inappropriate for even an exceptionally profitable company to fund an operation once it appears to have unending losses in prospect. Adam Smith would disagree with my first proposition and Karl Marx would disagree with my second; the middle ground is the only position that leaves me comfortable.

What the human being is best at doing is interpreting all new information so that their prior conclusions remain intact.

You are lucky in life if you have the right heroes. I advise all of you, to the extent you can, to pick out a few heroes

[W]e think the very term 'value investing' is redundant. What is 'investing' if it is not the act of seeking value at least sufficient to justify the amount paid? Consciously paying more for a stock than its calculated value -- in the hope that it can soon be sold for a still-higher price -- should be labeled speculation (which is neither illegal, immoral nor -- in our view -- financially fattening).

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.
