I'd dropped out of college to start design thing.
Biz Stone
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.

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

Embrace your constraints. They are provocative. They are challenging. They wake you up. They make you more creative. They make you better.

With Twitter, it's as easy to unfollow as it is to follow.
Biz Stone
Creativity is a renewable resource. Challenge yourself every day. Be as creative as you like, as often as you want, because you can never run out. Experience and curiosity drive us to make unexpected, offbeat connections. It is these nonlinear steps that often lead to the greatest work.

Lesson number one: opportunity can be manufactured. Yes, you can wait around for the right set of circumstances to fall into place and then leap into action but you can also create those set of circumstances on your own. In so doing, you manufacture your own opportunities. This has helped me immeasurably.

Design is a career where you learn creative decision making.

When you think about Twitter, there are people all around the world reporting twenty-four seven, every second. They're reporting what they're seeing and what's happening around them. So there's a lot of potential for breaking news.
Biz Stone
Inventing your dream is the first and biggest step toward making it come true.
Biz Stone
Success isn´t guaranteed, but failure is certain if you aren´t truly emotionally invested in your work.
Biz Stone
The reason I really started running was for meditative purposes. I would pick some problem to have in my head while running.

I've seen people twitter in haiku only.
Biz Stone
People are watching TV, they're watching some clips on their iPhone. I mean, some folks are sitting there on the iPhone, watching the Colbert Report, and meanwhile there's a huge plasma TV right in front of them that they could be watching it on.
Biz Stone
I think of Twitter as a messaging system that you didn't know you needed until you had it. Think about when cell phones first started coming out. People said, Why would I carry my phone around? And now you'll drive back to your house thirty miles if you forget your cell phone.
