“Believe in yourself and negotiate for yourself. Own your own success.”

I know from my own experience that the path to change is best traveled when we travel together.

The cost of stability is often diminished opportunities for growth.

Trying to do it all and expecting that it all can be done exactly right is a recipe for disappointment. Perfection is the enemy.

I feel really grateful to the people who encouraged me and helped me develop. Nobody can succeed on their own.

What I tell everyone, and I really do for myself is, I have a long-run dream, which is I want to work on stuff that I think matters.

Real empathy is sometimes not insisting that it will be okay but acknowledging that it is not.

Bring your whole self to work. I don’t believe we have a professional self Monday through Friday and a real self the rest of the time. It is all professional and it is all personal.

It’s more pressure on women to – if they marry or partner with someone, to partner with the right person. Because you cannot have a full career and a full life at home with your children if you are also doing all of the housework and child care.

But the upside of painful knowledge is so much greater than the downside of blissful ignorance.

We’re focused on doing one thing incredibly well. If you look at other companies, all of these companies are doing a lot of different things but we’re still, as we grow, doing exactly one thing.

Leadership is not bullying and leadership is not aggression. Leadership is the expectation that you can use your voice for good. That you can make the world a better place.

But I really believe that when you give people authentic identity, which is what Facebook does, and you can be your real self and connect with real people online, things will change.

Framing the issue of work-life balance – as if the two were dramatically opposed – practically ensures work will lose out. Who would ever choose work over life?

Women attribute their success to working hard, luck, and help from other people. Men will attribute that – whatever success they have, that same success – to their own core skills.

Don’t make decisions too far in advance, particularly ones you’re not even conscious you’re making.

Our culture needs to find a robust image of female success that is first, not male, and second, not a white woman on the phone, holding a crying baby.

Never explain yourself to anyone, because the one who likes you would not need it, and the one dislikes you wouldn’t believe it.

All of my life I’ve been growing into who I am in my life today and I am still growing, but I believe in love and nothing can deter me in that.

Believing in yourself is the first step to accomplishing any goal. If you think you’re going to fail, you probably will.

I believe people can change, but only for the worse.

It is surely harmful to souls to make it a heresy to believe what is proved.

Harry Potter’s like Santa Clause: something you can’t see but wish was real so badly that you end up believing in it.

One cannot be prepared for something while secretly believing it will not happen.

I think that little by little I’ll be able to solve my problems and survive.
