More quotes by Biz Stone
It's important to credit the brave people that take chances to stand up to regimes. They're the star.
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.
Biz Stone
Both my wife and I have a lot of compassion for animals in general.
Biz Stone
Design is a career where you learn creative decision making.

Embrace your constraints.
Biz Stone
The reason I really started running was for meditative purposes. I would pick some problem to have in my head while running.

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

I knew Mac pretty well. I'd used them when I was younger.
Biz Stone
There's a lot of social input when you put these things out there. People's ideas cross with other people's thoughts.
Biz Stone
With Twitter, it's as easy to unfollow as it is to follow.
Biz Stone
I think we definitely want to focus on the simplicity aspect because it's something that's built into the culture even here at Twitter. Constraints inspire creativity.
Biz Stone
People first. Technology second.
Biz Stone
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
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.
