33.Whether it is for private business owners or shareholders of listed companies, the standard of reference when buying and selling should be the intrinsic value of the enterprise rather than the record of past transactions. This is the most basic concept of value, and I think it will never be outdated.
不管是对于私有企业主还是上市公司的股东,进行买卖时参考的标准应该是企业内在价值而不是过往成交的纪录,这是最基本的价值概念,而且我认为永远也不会过时。

如果你想获得想要的东西,那就得让自己配得上它。信任,成功和钦佩都是靠努力获得的。
46.Whether you are correct or wrong does not depend on whether you agree with you. You are correct because your information and reasoning are correct.

和巴菲特一样,我有很强的致富欲望。不是因为我喜欢法拉利什么的,而是我喜欢独立。我极度渴望独立。
55.I think it is a reliable learning method to master the knowledge that others have already compiled. I don't recognize the way that the door is built to drive the results. No one can be so smart.
