I think that my biggest attribute to any success that I have had is hard work. There really is no substitute for working hard.

I've seen very few people in the world accomplish anything unless they were optimists.

All successful investment involves trying to get into something where it's worth more than you're paying. That's what successful investing is.

Success in investing doesn't correlate with I.Q. Once you are above the level of 125; once you have ordinary intelligence, what you need is the temperament to control the urges that get other people into trouble in investing.

The investor's primary interest lies in acquiring and holding suitable securities at suitable prices.

Don’t look for the needle in the haystack. Just buy the haystack!
