More quotes by Mark Zuckerberg
Facebook was not originally created to be a company. It was built to accomplish a social mission - to make the world more open and connected.
Mark Zuckerberg
You grow more when you get more people's perspective.
Mark Zuckerberg
You could probably go all the way back to the first books. I bet people said 'why should you read when you could talk to other people?' The point of reading is that you get to deeply immerse yourself in a person's perspective. Right? Same thing with newspapers or phones or TVs. Soon it will be VR, I bet.
Mark Zuckerberg
Our goal is not to build a platform it's to be cross all of them.
Mark Zuckerberg
We look for people who are passionate about something. In a way, it almost doesn’t matter what you’re passionate about. What we really look for when we’re interviewing people is what they’ve shown an initiative to do on their own.
Mark Zuckerberg
If we want to have the biggest impact, the best way to do this is to make sure we always focus on solving the most important problems.
Mark Zuckerberg
It only took me two weeks to build the first version of Facebook because I had so much stuff before then.
Mark Zuckerberg
Of course the Silicon Valley is unique and Berlin is not yet comparable. But of all the different cities that are building a startup infrastructure, Berlin is the one with the most similar energy.
Mark Zuckerberg
People think innovation is just having a good idea but a lot of it is just moving quickly and trying a lot of things.
Mark Zuckerberg
There have been misperceptions that we're trying to make all the information open on Facebook, and that's completely false. There are big buckets of information that we recommend that you share with only your friends privately. Then some of the more basic information, we recommend that that's visible to everyone.
Mark Zuckerberg
I think a simple rule of business is, if you do the things that are easier first, then you can actually make a lot of progress.
Mark Zuckerberg
The question I ask myself like almost every day is: ‘Am I doing the most important thing I could be doing?' Unless I feel like I’m working on the most important problem that I can help with, then I’m not going to feel good about how I’m spending my time. And that’s what this company is.
Mark Zuckerberg
We want Facebook to be one of the best places people can go to learn how to build stuff. If you want to build a company, nothing better than jumping in and trying to build one. But Facebook is also great for entrepreneurs/hackers. If people want to come for a few years and move on and build something great, that's something we're proud of.
Mark Zuckerberg
Nothing influences people more than are commendation from a trusted friend.
Mark Zuckerberg
It is really important for us that people understand what the strategy is and that the real approach is to make everything social, not to build a vertical approach.
Mark Zuckerberg
Building a mission and building a business go hand-in-hand. It is true that the primary thing that makes me excited about what we're doing is the mission, but I also think, from the very beginning, we've had this healthy understanding which is that we need to do both.
Mark Zuckerberg
In terms of doing work and in terms of learning and evolving as a person, you just grow more when you get more people's perspectives... I really try and live the mission of the company and... keep everything else in my life extremely simple.
Mark Zuckerberg
The world is changing so quickly, with mobile stuff and different platforms emerging, that I think it's more likely that the biggest competitor for Facebook is someone that we haven't heard of. What that means for us is that we should just really stay focused on what we're doing.
Mark Zuckerberg
The real question for me is, do people have the tools that they need in order to make those decisions well? And I think that it's actually really important that Facebook continually makes it easier and easier to make those decisions... If people feel like they don't have control over how they're sharing things, then we're failing them.
Mark Zuckerberg
Providing the best photo sharing experience is one reason why so many people love Facebook and we knew it would be worth bringing these two companies together.
