Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

Back, you know, a few generations ago, people didn’t have a way to share information and express their opinions efficiently to a lot of people. But now they do.

Founding a company is hard. Most of it isn’t smooth. You’ll have to make very hard decisions. You have to fire a few people. Therefore, if you don’t believe in your mission, giving up is easy. The majority of the founders give up. But the best founders don’t give up. – Mark Zuckerberg

Think about what people are doing on Facebook today. They’re keeping up with their friends and family, but they’re also building an image and identity for themselves, which in a sense is their brand. They’re connecting with the audience that the want to connect to. It’s almost a disadvantage if you’re not on it now. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

Advertising works most effectively when it’s in line with what people are already trying to do. And people are trying to communicate in a certain way on Facebook – they share information with their friends, they learn about what their friends are doing – so there’s really a whole new opportunity for a new type of advertising model within that. – Mark Zuckerberg

When people are connected, we can just do some great things. They have the opportunity to get access to jobs, education, health, communications. We have the opportunity to bring the people we care about closer to us. It really makes a big difference. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

No one has done a study on this, as far as I can tell, but I think Facebook might be the first place where a large number of people have come out. We didn’t create that – society was generally ready for that. I think this is just part of the general trend that we talked about, about society being more open, and I think that’s good. – 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

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

Video is growing very quickly on Facebook. A lot of people compare that to YouTube. I think that kind of makes sense. YouTube isn’t the only video service, but I think it’s the biggest, and it probably makes more sense to compare Facebook video to YouTube rather than Netflix because that’s a completely different kind of content. – Mark Zuckerberg

I remember flying in, driving down 101 in a cab, and passing by all these tech companies like Yahoo! I remember thinking, ‘Maybe someday we’ll build a company. This probably isn’t it, but one day we will.’ – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

For the first time, we’re allowing developers who don’t work at Facebook to develop applications just as if they were.

There are whole companies that are forming whose only product is a Facebook Platform application. – 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

Our mission is to connect every person in the world. You don’t do that by having a service people pay for. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

I think a lot of the time there isn’t such a black-and-white difference between what’s a platform and what’s an app. It’s really just like the most important apps become platforms. – Mark Zuckerberg

We’re a community of a billion-plus people, and the best-selling phones – apart from the iPhone – can sell 10, 20 million. If we did build a phone, we’d only reach 1 or 2 per cent of our users.

You get a reputation for stability if you are stable for years. – Mark Zuckerberg

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

I do everything on my phone as a lot of people do. – Mark Zuckerberg

I feel like the thing we can do is celebrate people doing great work and create more cultural momentum and awareness that this is an important thing in the world.

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

There are disasters that happen – Hurricane Harvey came up, and you had people self-organizing through the community and getting in boats and driving around rescuing people coordinated ad hoc through this network. That’s not a media function. – Mark Zuckerberg

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

The real question for me is, do people have the tools that they need in order to make those decisions well?

I just think that VR and AR are going to be a really big deal. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

People at Facebook are fairly used to the press being nice to us or not nice to us. – Mark Zuckerberg

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

I literally coded Facebook in my dorm room and launched it from my dorm room. I rented a server for $85 a month, and I funded it by putting an ad on the side, and we’ve funded ever since by putting ads on the side. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

Health is certainly extremely important, and we’ve done a number of things at Facebook to help improve global health and work in that area, and I am excited to do more there, too. But the reality is that it’s not an either-or. People need to be healthy and be able to have the Internet as a backbone to connect them to the whole economy. – 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

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

We just think that there are all these different ways that people want to share and that compressing them all into a single blue app is not the right format of the future. – Mark Zuckerberg

I just think people have a lot of fiction. But, you know, I mean, the real story of Facebook is just that we’ve worked so hard for all this time. I mean, the real story is actually probably pretty boring, right? I mean, we just sat at our computers for six years and coded. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

You can use your real identity, or you can use phone numbers for something like WhatsApp, and pseudonyms for something like Instagram. But in any of those you’re not just sharing and consuming content, you are also building relationships with people and building an understanding of people. – Mark Zuckerberg

There are different ways to do innovation. You can plant a lot of seeds, not be committed to any particular one of them, but just see what grows. And this really isn’t how we’ve approached this. We go mission-first, then focus on the pieces we need and go deep on them and be committed to them. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

One of my big regrets is that Facebook hasn’t had a major chance to shape the mobile operating system ecosystem. – Mark Zuckerberg

I feel that the best companies are started not because the founder wanted a company but because the founder wanted to change the world…If you decide you want to found a company, you maybe start to develop your first idea. And hire lots of workers. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

We’re running the company to serve more people. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

When most people ask about a business growing, what they really mean is growing revenue, not just growing the number of people using a service. Traditional businesses would view people using your service that you don’t make money from as a cost. – 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

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

There’s a level of service that we could provide when we’re just at Harvard that we can’t provide for all of the colleges, and there’s a level of service that we can provide when we’re a college network that we wouldn’t be able to provide if we went to other types of things. – Mark Zuckerberg

This is a perverse thing, personally, but I would rather be in the cycle where people are underestimating us. It gives us latitude to go out and make big bets that excite and amaze people. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

Our strategy is very horizontal. We’re trying to build a social layer for everything. Basically, we’re trying to make it so that every app everywhere can be social, whether it’s on the web or mobile or other devices. So inherently, our whole approach has to be a breadth-first approach rather than a depth-first one. – Mark Zuckerberg

I don’t have an alarm clock. If someone needs to wake me up, then I have my BlackBerry next to me. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

Our role is to be a platform for making all of these apps more social, and it’s kind of an extension of what we see happening on the web, with the exception of mobile, which I think will be even more important than the web in a few years – maybe even sooner. – Mark Zuckerberg

The companies that work are the ones that people really care about and have a vision for the world so do something you like. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

There are really two core principles at play here. There’s giving people a voice so that people can express their opinions. Then, there’s keeping the community safe, which I think is really important. We’re not gonna let people plan violence or attack each other or do bad things. – Mark Zuckerberg

I hope that Facebook and other Internet technologies were able to help people, just like we hope that we help them communicate and organize and do whatever they want to every single day, but I don’t pretend that if Facebook didn’t exist, that this wouldn’t even be possible. Of course, it would have. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

I’m trying to make the world a more open place. – Mark Zuckerberg

There are a few other things that I built when I was at Harvard that were kind of smaller versions of Facebook. One such program was this program called Match. People could enter the different courses that they were taking, and see what other courses would be correlated with the courses that are taking. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

A lot of people are focused on taking over the world or doing the biggest thing and getting the most users. I think part of making a difference and doing something cool is focusing intensely. – Mark Zuckerberg

It’s not that every single thing that happens on Facebook is gonna be good. This is humanity. People use tools for good and bad, but I think that we have a clear responsibility to make sure that the good is amplified and to do everything we can to mitigate the bad. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

The biggest mistake we made as a company was betting too much on HTML5. – Mark Zuckerberg

Right now, with social networks and other tools on the Internet, all of these 500 million people have a way to say what they’re thinking and have their voice be heard. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

I think humans are just hard-wired to process people’s faces and understand meaning and expression at such a more granular level than other types of communication. – Mark Zuckerberg

Facebook is really about communicating and telling stories… We think that people can really help spread awareness of organ donation and that they want to participate in this to their friends. And that can be a big part of helping solve the crisis that’s out there. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

I actually think people generally have an awareness and feel like, ‘Wow, these networks have a lot of information.’ – Mark Zuckerberg

Bill Gates has always been a mentor and inspiration for me even before I knew him. Just growing up, I admired how Microsoft was mission-focused. – Mark Zuckerberg

 

Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

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

When Facebook was getting started, nothing used real identity – everything was anonymous or pseudonymous – and I thought that real identity should play a bigger part than it did. – Mark Zuckerberg
