The great thing about the Internet is, it's the freest marketplace of ideas that there is.

Having ideas and doing them - that's what entrepreneurship comes down to. That's something that makes you not just a great founder who I want to invest in, but also a great employee or someone I want to work with.

The first step, and the thing that everyone has to do right on the Internet is make something people want.

Having that kind of endorsement and having Paul Graham's readership coming to your site and contributing to it and building the foundation of the community was just a really invaluable way to start Reddit.

I like sarcasm. I like snark.

Even if you have no interest in starting a company, having the experience of having ideas and doing them, that's muscle to exercise because that's what people are going to want to see. That's what makes you different.

I can't begrudge anyone who opts to get a job instead of creating one for themselves.
