“We want to be able to sell you anything, anywhere, any time you want it.”

Hollywood is a community that’s so inbred, it’s a wonder the children have any teeth.

My opinion, young people go to the Internet. To the Internet distribution system right now, you put it up there and it’s accessed by the world.

You really want to get a headache? Try to understand Internet advertising.

What I’ve learned over the years is that focus and singular purpose is the best approach for businesses.

I still believe in synergy, but I call it natural law.

I never thought I was a very good manager.

The American public tunes in every night hoping to see two people screwing. Obviously, we can’t give them that but let’s always keep it in mind.

We need an unambiguous rule – a law – that nobody will step between the publisher and the consumer, full stop.

Facebook’s the real deal. Nobody can buy Facebook now. Everybody has taken an angle at it. But Facebook may be the place that organizes everybody’s personal information. It’s got a very good chance of being that.

If you are able to explain suffering, a man once told him, you weren’t really there.

You never know what’s going to happen. That’s why I like acting. It’s precious to me to be able to live more than one life.

No doubt that the U.S. is a super-power capable of conquering a relatively small country, but is it able to control it?

They appear to have become so attached to their outrage that they are even more outraged that they won’t be able to be outraged anymore.

By being able to write a genome and plug it into an organism, the software, if you will, changes the hardware.

With everything that is complex, we learn. If you don’t learn, then it’s an utter and abject failure. If you do learn, and you’re able to apply that to the next situation, then you take away a measure of success.

I don’t seem able to do my best unless I’m behind or in trouble.

It’s rumored that doing well in real estate is to be able to close a deal. I did not find that to be the case for myself, I was probably the worst closer out there and I didn’t find that was true of my top super stars either.
