Twitter has been my life's work in many senses. It started with a fascination with cities and how they work, and what's going on in them right now.

More quotes by 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'm less interested in how people are following each other and more interested in how they are following topics and tweets themselves. People are following more key words and concepts and more ideas and acting on those rather than individuals or organizations.
Jack Dorsey
Short term satisfaction will never lead to something timeless.
Jack Dorsey
It's empowering to be asked to look at what's possible, not told how to do it.
Jack Dorsey
Those words are from Lynda Barry's novel 'Cruddy.' I've carried them with me for some time. There's a lot in my life I wasn't expecting. One is the realization that I stood at this pulpit and delivered a reading for my own graduation...15 years ago. Unexpectedly, I'm old.
Jack Dorsey
My goal is to simplify complexity.
Jack Dorsey
My mom cares that I tweeted a picture of my breakfast. She's knows I'm eating and I'm safe.
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
From a product standpoint, we want every touch point to feel magical. It inspires trust.
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 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
We get to design what we want to see in the world rather than doing what other people think should be done.
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
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
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
An idea that can change the course of the company can come from anywhere.
Jack Dorsey
What I love about New York is just the electricity I feel right away.
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
Pick a movement, pick a revolution and join it.
