A number of people in the United States, almost everyone, is using plastic cards to pay for things, but it's extremely difficult to accept these cards. So let's make it's easy and take more and more of the friction out as we can.

More quotes by Jack Dorsey
I fell in love with flora of all types, especially ferns. Loved the sparse structure and repetition of shape - almost fractal.
Jack Dorsey
An idea that can change the course of the company can come from anywhere.
Jack Dorsey
My goal is to simplify complexity.
Jack Dorsey
It's really complex to make something simple.
Jack Dorsey
The Web provides a very easy way to immediately grasp what's going on. It really offers the transparency, so you can see, especially with the search engine, how people are using Twitter at one glance. The phone doesn't allow for that.
Jack Dorsey
TweetDeck is a very interesting client, because it presents a view that no other client in the world presents, which is this multicolumn, massive amounts of information in one pane. And people really, really enjoy that.
Jack Dorsey
I loved couriers. You had this transfer of physical information happening throughout the city and the world. Someone picking up the package, putting it in a bag, going somewhere, taking it out of the bag, giving it to someone else. I thought that was so cool. I wanted to map it, to see that flow on a big screen.
Jack Dorsey
I love cities, and I love city governments in particular. But in politics it would have taken me 8 years from implementing a policy before I would get to see the feedback. With programming I could model the same policies and see the impact immediately. Technology is a far more efficient way to test.
Jack Dorsey
You don't have to start from scratch to have a massive impact on the world.
Jack Dorsey
What's interesting about Twitter and the influencers that someone follows - like, say, Shaquille O'Neal - is that they see someone who is using the exact same tools that they have access to, and I think that inspires this hope to be able to really engage with someone like him.
Jack Dorsey
It's empowering to be asked to look at what's possible, not told how to do it.
Jack Dorsey
I was fascinated with jeans, because you can impress your life upon the jeans you wear. The way you sit imprints on the jeans.
Jack Dorsey
I said a long time ago that Foursquare can make cities better. You have these augmented realities like Foursquare and Twitter and Facebook that provide these virtual nodes and instant feedback from anywhere, adding annotation around a physical places.
Jack Dorsey
Everyone has an idea, but it's really about executing the idea and attracting other people to help you with the idea.
Jack Dorsey
I spend 90% of my time with people who don't report to me, which also allows for serendipity, since I'm walking around the office all the time. You don't have to schedule serendipity. It just happens.
Jack Dorsey
Revolution looks at the intersection ahead and pushes people to do the right thing.
Jack Dorsey
Life happens at intersections.
Jack Dorsey
It's a matter of invitations versus context. Twitter is really good at providing context, like, I''m having coffee at Third Rail Coffee.' Foursquare is about invitations to places. In this respect Foursquare has started to replace Yelp for me.
Jack Dorsey
I think that great programming is not all that dissimilar to great art. Once you start thinking in concepts of programming it makes you a better person...as does learning a foreign language, as does learning math, as does learning how to read.
Jack Dorsey
There's an entire universe in every single tweet, and it all really depends on the content as far as how it's going to spread.
