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

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.
Biz Stone
Embrace your constraints. They are provocative. They are challenging. They wake you up. They make you more creative. They make you better.
Biz Stone
Success isn´t guaranteed, but failure is certain if you aren´t truly emotionally invested in your work.

I mean just look at haiku, the idea of it. We want to focus on that singularity, on that simplicity, but we still want to add features and add value, but we want to do it in a way that fits in with that mentality of simplicity. You have to spend a lot of time thinking about it.
Biz Stone
I started out as an artist, and I continue to think of myself as an artist first, and a technologist and entrepreneur after that.
Biz Stone
You have to think for an email. What's the subject? What's it about? It takes two seconds to think about that. So you have to think, Is this a work thing or a social thing? Which? Then you get into a situation that you don't want to be in, because then people are thinking about it too much.
