More quotes by Mark Zuckerberg
I think there's confusion around what the point of social networks is. A lot of different companies characterized as social networks have different goals - some serve the function of business networking, some are media portals. What we're trying to do is just make it really efficient for people to communicate, get information and share information.
Mark Zuckerberg
The trick isn't adding stuff, it's taking away.
Mark Zuckerberg
If I were starting now I would do things very differently. I didn't know anything. In Silicon Valley, you get this feeling that you have to be out here. But it's not the only place to be. If I were starting now, I would have stayed in Boston. [Silicon Valley] is a little short-term focused and that bothers me.
Mark Zuckerberg
While we generally believe in free speech and giving everyone as much ability to speak as possible, in practice there are lots of barriers to that, whether it's legal restrictions, technological restrictions or you can't share what you want if you don't have access to the internet.
Mark Zuckerberg
It took 10 years to go from building the initial Smartphone to reaching the mass market. BlackBerry came out in 2003 and it didn't get to about a billion units until 2013. So I can't imagine it would be much faster for VR.
Mark Zuckerberg
At Facebook, we build tools to help people connect with the people they want and share what they want, and by doing this we are extending people's capacity to build and maintain relationships.
Mark Zuckerberg
The only meat I eat is from animals I've killed myself.
Mark Zuckerberg
Facebook is inherently viral.
Mark Zuckerberg
If you recognize that self-driving cars are going to prevent car accidents, AI will be responsible for reducing one of the leading causes of death in the world.
Mark Zuckerberg
We should have a society that measures progress not just by economic metrics like GDP, but by how many of us have a role we find the meaningful. We should explore ideas like universal basic income to make sure everyone has a cushion to try new ideas.
Mark Zuckerberg
I personally don't invest in a lot of companies because I think it would be a conflict of interest and Facebook doesn't typically either.
Mark Zuckerberg
Today we can only hear the voices and witness the imaginations of one-third of the world's people. We are all being robbed of the creativity and potential of the two-thirds of the world not yet online. Tomorrow, if we succeed, the Internet will truly represent everyone.
Mark Zuckerberg
The question isn't, 'What do we want to know about people?', It's, 'What do people want to tell about themselves?'
Mark Zuckerberg
A guy who makes a new chair doesn't owe money to everyone who ever built a chair.
Mark Zuckerberg
Why are most chess masters under 30?

Look at the way celebrities and politicians are using Facebook already. When Ashton Kutcher posts a video, he gets hundreds of pieces of feedback. Maybe he doesn't have time to read them all or respond to them all, but he's getting good feedback and getting a good sense of how people are thinking about that and maybe can respond to some of it.
Mark Zuckerberg
What really motivates people at Facebook is building stuff that they're proud of.
Mark Zuckerberg
I started the site when I was 19. I didn't know much about business back then.
Mark Zuckerberg
It used to be the case, like, you'd switch jobs, and then maybe you wouldn't keep in touch with all the people that you knew from that old job. Just because it was too hard. But one of the things that Facebook does is it makes it really easy to just stay in touch with all these people.
Mark Zuckerberg
The thing I really care about is the mission, making the world open.
Mark Zuckerberg
