“You can’t make a good deal with a bad person.”
Warren Buffett’s core principle is that you “can’t make a good deal with a bad person” because integrity and character are paramount; no contract can fully protect you from an unethical individual who enjoys loopholes and litigation, wasting time and energy, so it’s best to walk away from such partnerships to preserve peace of mind and focus on building lasting value with trustworthy, honest people.

what happens when you let your art be ‘influenced’ by other artists? – Tara Leaver
“And the big daddy that I learned from all this: I actually CAN’T paint like other artists, and nor do I want to. That’s the best thing this exercise has taught me over the years; it’s fun to experiment, to try out what other artists are doing, but if I only ever did that I’d be unfulfilled and dissatisfied. I’d be surrounded by a vegetarian buffet and craving steak.”
