I try to get rid of people who confidently answer questions about which they don't have any real knowledge.
To this day, I have never taken a course anywhere, in chemistry, economics, psychology, or business.
It is remarkable how much long-term advantage people like us have gotten by trying to be consistently not stupid, instead of trying to be intelligent.
I paid no attention to the territorial boundaries of academic disciplines and I just grabbed all the big ideas that I could.
I met the towering intellectuals in books, not in classroom, which is natural.My family was into all that stuff, getting ahead through discipline, knowledge, and self-control.
Just the discipline of having to put your thoughts in order with somebody else is very useful thing.
If you skillfully follow the multidisciplinary path, you will never wish to come back.It would be like cutting off your hands.
One of the greatest ways to avoid trouble is to keep it simple...the system often goes out of control.
Like Warren, I had a considerable passion to get rich, not because I wanted Ferrari's -I wanted the independence.I desperately wanted it.
The habit of committing far more time to learning and thinking than to doing is no accident.
A majority of life's errors are caused by forgetting what one is really trying to do.
You don't have to be brilliant, only a little bit wiser than the other guys, on average, for a long, long time.
If you keep learning all the time you have a huge advantage.
Those who keep learning will keep rising in life.
Being something and doing something that no one had done before are two different things.
To get what you want, you have to deserve what you want.That world is not yet a crazy enough place to reward a whole bunch of people.
It takes character to sit with all that cash and to do nothing.I didn't get to the top where I am by going after mediocre opportunities.
颠倒,永远颠倒:把情况或问题颠倒过来。倒过来看。
不犯错误,你就不可能过上充实的生活。
老年最好的盔甲就是追求完美、没有虚度的一生。
