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

We want the average person to use it and think that it makes the experience of using Pinterest better.

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

Just build things and find out if they work.

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 was obsessed with this idea that these things that you collect, they just say so much about who you are. I can't say it came from hard-nosed business analysis... It was just something I really want to see built.
