I wish I owned stock in Nicorette. I love Nicorette. Best invention ever.

The very first stock I bought right out of college was Berkshire Hathaway.

I bought a company in the mid-'90s called Dexter Shoe and paid $400 million for it. And it went to zero. And I gave about $400 million worth of Berkshire stock, which is probably now worth $400 billion. But I've made lots of dumb decisions. That's part of the game.

There is a large stock on hand; but somehow or other, nobody's experience ever suits us but our own.

You'll get nowhere buying stocks just because they have a great story.

Actually, I bought one share of Warren Buffett's stock, probably 35 years ago, in order to read his letters.

Even I have been at that point in my life where I thought I didn't have enough extra money laying around to start investing in stocks for my own retirement plans.

I started out in summer stock, and that's really what I prefer.

I called my business manager in California and said, 'Sell all of my stock' - what little of it I had - and it's the only smart financial move I ever made.
