Warren Buffett Speaks:On Success

On Success

  1. “Of the billionaires I have known, money just brings out the basic traits in them. If they were jerks before they had money, they are simply jerks with a billion dollars.”
  2. “The business schools reward difficult complex behavior more than simple behavior, but simple behavior is more effective.”
  3. “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.”
  4. “Can you really explain to a fish what it’s like to walk on land? One day on land is worth a thousand years of talking about it, and one day running a business has exactly the same kind of value.”
  5. “You only have to do a very few things right in your life so long as you don’t do too many things wrong.”
