If you gave me the choice of being CEO of General Electric or IBM or General Motors, you name it, or delivering papers, I would deliver papers. I would. I enjoyed doing that. I can think about what I want to think. I don't have to do anything I don't want to do.

When you're associating with the people that you love, doing what you love, it doesn't get any better than that.

I think people - what people want to do is make [economy] get worse.

The best thing that happens to us is when a great company gets into temporary trouble...We want to buy them when they're on the operating table.

The truth is, everything that has happened in my life... that I thought was a crushing event at the time, has turned out for the better.

There is no staff. I make all the investment decisions and I do all my own analysis.

Outstanding long-term results are produced primarily by avoiding dumb decisions, rather than by making brilliant ones.
