A lot of people will say, what's Facebook's business model? I always find that a kind of funny question. Our business model is out there, which is: we monetize largely through advertising and a little bit through the gift revenue, the virtual gifts we have on our site. I think those continue to be the most promising avenues going forward.

When you're more valuable, the people around you will do more to make it work.

There are really good reasons to leave the workforce or work less or take a different job when you want to be with your children. I just want women - and men - to make that choice once they have the child. Not years in advance, because... they don't get the right opportunities. They give up before they even start.

I'm not writing about things other women do. I'm writing for other women to have more self-confidence because I need it myself! And if more women were in power, I would feel more comfortable.

I want women to get paid more. I want to teach them to negotiate so they get paid more.

Social media has created a historical shift from the historically powerful to the historically powerless. Now everyone has a voice.

Don't be afraid to ask the 'dumb' question, everyone else will be relieved you had the guts to ask!

There is no perfect fit when you're looking for the next big thing to do. You have to take opportunities and make an opportunity fit for you, rather than the other way around. The ability to learn is the most important quality a leader can have.

We cannot change what we are not aware of, and once we are aware, we cannot help but change.

When the man is traveling with a man, he says, Let's stay up late and work on this and get this to be better. When the man's traveling with the woman, for the sake of appearances he doesn't do the work with her. That's a lost opportunity for her to be a success.

The most important thing we're doing differently is that we talk openly about gender at Facebook.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
Don't let your fears overwhelm your desire. Let the barriers you face-and there will be barriers-be external, not internal. Fortune does favor the bold, and I promise that you will never know what you're capable of unless you try.

Most people assume that women are responsible for households and child care. Most couples operate that way - not all. That fundamental assumption holds women back.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
I'm excited that more people, especially men, are understanding that equality is good for them. I don't want men to want equality for women because they're being nice to their colleagues and daughters. I want men to want it because it's better for their companies and their lives.

Don't make decisions too far in advance, particularly ones you're not even conscious you're making.

Guilt management can be just as important as time management for mothers.

The social web can't exist until you are your real self online. I have to be me. You have to be you. Once we are online as ourselves, connected to each other and our other friends, then you can have the evolution of what becomes the social web.

The most important career decision you'll make is who your life partner is.

A woman, if you're Most Intelligent or Most Likely to Succeed, that's an embarrassing thing. Or something that's not considered attractive, and I think that's what we need to change.
