People love photos. Photos originally weren’t that big a part of the idea for Facebook, but we just found that people really like them, so we built out this functionality.

Facebook is in a very different place than Apple, Google, Amazon, Samsung, and Microsoft. We are trying to build a community.

In addition to building better products, a more open world will also encourage businesses to engage with their customers directly and authentically. More than four million businesses have Pages on Facebook that they use to have a dialogue with their customers. We expect this trend to grow as well.

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

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

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.

You cannot run faster than a bullet.

The beginning of compunction is the beginning of a new life.

To hold a pen is to be at war.

Politics is the gizzard of society, full of gut and gravel.

Soap and education are not as sudden as a massacre, but they are more deadly in the long run. Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.

He has not lived badly whose birth and death has been unnoticed by the world.

He that will not apply new remedies, must expect new evils: for Time is the greatest innovator: and if Time, of course, alter things to the worse, and wisdom and counsel shall not alter them to the better, what shall be the end?.

The volatile truth of our words should continually betray the inadequacy of the residual statement.

Out of intense complexities intense simplicities emerge.

It is a wise tune that knows its own father, and I like my music to be the legitimate offspring of respectable parents.

The first thing a great person does, is make us realize the insignificance of circumstance.

It is proved…that things cannot be other than they are, for since everything was made for a purpose, it follows that everything is made for the best purpose.

But most of us are apt to settle within ourselves that the man who blocks our way is odious, and not to mind causing him a little of the disgust which his personality excites in ourselves.

The third component of the Law of Dharma is service to humanity–to serve your fellow human beings and to ask yourself the questions,How can I help? How can I help all those that I come into contact with? When you combine the ability to express your unique talent with service to humanity, then you make full use of the Law of Dharma.

The man who writes about himself and his own time is the only man who writes about all people and all time.
