no legacy is so rich
as honesty.
william shakespeare
What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.
Pericles
The legacy of heroes is the memory of a great name and the inheritance of a great example.
Benjamin Disraeli
He who learns Torah from the old, whom is he comparable to? To one who eats ripened grapes and drinks aged wine.
Pirkei Avoth
When we own portions of outstanding businesses with outstanding managements, our favorite holding period is forever.
Warren Buffet
