“Weber goes off the beaten path. He practically scoffs at a lot of common valuation metrics and he isn't afraid to get heavily into certain industries that might make other people nervous. He definitely has the strength of his convictions, and for the most part it's worked out fairly well.”

Wayne Sisco
“Nor heed the shaft too surely cast, The foul and hissing bolt of scorn; For with thy side shall dwell, at last, The victory of endurance born”
William Cullen Bryant
“Teach not thy lip such scorn, for it was made For kissing, lady, not for such contempt.”
William Shakespeare
