People say doing a startup is like a marathon. It's actually a roadtrip at night with no headlights. You think you're going to Toledo but you're actually going to Miami and you might not have enough gas so you might need to buy gas from someone who might take you out if you aren't driving well

I thought Google was the coolest place. People there were so smart and they were all doing these really interesting things. I just felt really lucky to be a part of it even in a small way.

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.

Just build things and find out if they work.

As a kid, I always idolized entrepreneurs. I thought they were cool people in the way that I thought basketball players were cool people. It's cool that some people get paid to dunk basketballs, but I'm not one of those people.

I’d never managed anyone before, so I don’t have a lot of experience. But I’m lucky - I have a lot of team members who have a really honest relationship with me.
