Warren Buffett is one of the world’s most successful people (ever) in business, investing, and philanthropy. I particularly admire his steadfast discipline and ethical approach to just about everything. Here are some Warren Buffett quotes I like, if you need some inspiration…
“It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.”
“In the business world, the rearview mirror is always clearer than the windshield.”
“Wide diversification is only required when investors do not understand what they are doing.”
“I don’t look to jump over 7-foot bars: I look around for 1-foot bars that I can step over.”
“We enjoy the process far more than the proceeds.”
“I buy expensive suits. They just look cheap on me.”
“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.”
“I will tell you how to become rich. Close the doors. Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful.”
“We will reject interesting opportunities rather than over-leverage our balance sheet.”
“If you don’t know jewelry, know the jeweller.”

I was emotionally touched when Warren Buffet contributed a very substantial amount to the Bill Gate foundation to invest on medication in Africa. Keep up the good work, Sir, you are an inspiration to all of us especially the young adults like me and the youth in particular.
