I want Pinterest to be human. The Internet's still so abstract... To me, boards are a very human way of looking at the world.

The companies that I really admire the most are the ones that have a deep visceral understanding of why people use their service, and they figure out ways of making money that are completely consistent with how people are feeling and what they are doing at the time.

I always just want to move along to the next step.

I think the thing that I've learned is that really great people, they actually want to work on hard problems.

When Pinterest works well, it helps you find things that are meaningful to you. We want to build a system that helps you do that.

We're trying to do something so that when the average person uses Pinterest, it has to make the service better.

One of the things I've learned is to be receptive of feedback.
