Warren Buffett: “The bottom 2% in terms of income in the United States, the bottom 5%, and for sure the top 1% all live better than John D. Rockefeller was living when I was 6 years old.” “John D. Rockefeller was the richest man in the world and, today, you can get better medicine, better education, better entertainment, better transportation. You can do everything better than he could.”

Stanley Druckenmiller: “A lot of my style is you [first] build a thesis, hopefully that no one else has built.

Peter Lynch: “You have to be looking for new companies and look at the balance sheet. If you can add 5 and 5 and get reasonably close to 10, you should be able to look at a balance sheet and say: here are 2 depressed companies, they’ve gone from $50 to $3 dollars. One company’s got $300 million in cash and no debt. One’s got $300 million in debt and no cash. Which one are you gonna buy? Not too hard.” Keep it simple.

Steve Jobs once called Warren Buffett for advice on stock buybacks. Buffett told Jobs—“There’s just 2 questions” to ask: 1. Do you have enough cash to build the business the way you see it over the next 5-10 years? 2. Is your stock selling for less than it’s worth? Jobs answered Yes to both. Buffett said: “Well, you’ve answered your own question.”

Warren Buffett: “There’s always going to be some news, good or bad, every day. In fact, if you go back and read all the papers for the last 50 years, probably most of the headlines tend to be bad. But if you look at what happens to the economy, most of the things that happen are extremely good.”
