“However, both Warren and I are very good at changing our prior conclusions. We work at developing that facility because without it, disaster often comes.”
Charles T. Munger, Poor Charlie’s Almanack: The Essential Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger

“Life, in part, is like a poker game, wherein you have to learn to quit sometimes when holding a much-loved hand.”
Charles T. Munger, Poor Charlie’s Almanack: The Essential Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger

Charles T. Munger
“Yeah, I’m passionate about wisdom. I’m passionate about accuracy and some kinds of curiosity. Perhaps I have some streak of generosity in my nature and a desire to serve values that transcend my brief life. But maybe I’m just here to show off. Who knows? I believe in the discipline of mastering the best that other people have ever figured out. I don’t believe in just sitting down and trying to dream it all up yourself. Nobody’s that smart.”
Charles T. Munger, Poor Charlie’s Almanack: The Essential Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger

“It’s not given to human beings to have such talent that they can just know everything about everything all the time. But it is given to human beings who work hard at it—who look and sift the world for a mispriced bet—that they can occasionally find one. And the wise ones bet heavily when the world offers them that opportunity. They bet big when they have the odds. And the rest of the time, they don’t. It’s just that simple.”
Charles T. Munger, Poor Charlie’s Almanack: The Essential Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger

“And the models have to come from multiple disciplines—because all the wisdom of the world is not to be found in one little academic department. That’s why poetry professors, by and large, are so unwise in a worldly sense. They don’t have enough models in their heads. So you’ve got to have models across a fair array of disciplines.”
Charles T. Munger, Poor Charlie’s Almanack: The Essential Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger
