“I never even graduated college. I never finished learning, as it were, and I have a psychological need to be in a learning environment at all times.”

What if the New York Times gave out free, cheap Kindles to everyone and said this is how we’re doing it now. You know? Maybe that’s a way to go.

Even the simplest tools can empower people to do great things.

The normal press cycle is to put a company on a pedestal and then knock it down. It’s much more interesting that way.

Creativity is an infinitely renewable resource – you are not going to run out of it – so don’t be afraid to use it.

In order to succeed spectacularly you have to be willing to fail spectacularly.

Positive culture comes from being mindful, and respecting your coworkers, and being empathetic.

You curate information that you want to receive. It’s a lot different because I’m not asking you if it’s okay, I’m just saying I’m following your updates. That’s why I don’t think of Twitter as a social network.

Experience and curiosity drive us to make unexpected, offbeat connections. It is these nonlinear steps that often lead to the greatest work.

You can shut down a service, and yet people will find ways to communicate.

Have confidence in your ideas before they even exist.

He that repents is angry with himself; I need not be angry with him.

Only bad generals need heroes.

If we acknowledge our need for God, he will help us.

What we need of equipment is this: let it possess as good a structure as the real-life content that surrounds us. We need more simplifications to free us for seeing.

Everyone needs help from everyone.

For the longest time I have had so much belief and confidence in myself, which as an actor you need, because the entertainment industry is incredible competitive, brutal, and unpredictable just when you start to think you know what’s going on.

You do not ask a tame seagull why it needs to disappear from time to time toward the open sea. It goes, that’s all.

Unfortunate the country that needs heroes!
