If you get to my age in life and nobody thinks well of you, I don't care how big your bank account is, your life is a disaster.
Warren BuffettYou get what I call the natural progression, the three Is. The innovators, the imitators, and the idiots.
Warren BuffettYou only have to do a very few things right in your life so long as you don't do too many things wrong.
Warren BuffettYouโve gotta keep control of your time, and you canโt unless you say no. You canโt let people set your agenda in life.
Warren BuffettIf you know how to value businesses, it's crazy to own 50 stocks or 40 stocks or 30 stocks, probably because there aren't that many wonderful businesses understandable to a single human being in all likelihood. To forego buying more of some super-wonderful business and instead put your money into #30 or #35 on your list of attractiveness just strikes Charlie and me as madness.
Warren BuffettWell, one time some attractive woman sat next to Charlie and asked him what he owed his success to, and, unfortunately, she insisted on a one word answer. He had a speech prepared that would have gone on for several hours. But when forced to boil it down to one word, he said that was "rational". You know, he comes equipped for rationality, and he applies it in business. He doesn't always apply it elsewhere, but he applies it in business and that has made him a huge business success.
