The good news about building a company during times like this is that the companies that do succeed are going to be extremely strong and resilient.

Almost every dot-com idea from 1999 that failed will succeed.

An awful lot of successful technology companies ended up being in a slightly different market than they started out in.

People are so bad at driving cars that computers don't have to be that good to be much better. Any time you stand in line at the D.M.V. and look around, you're like, 'Oh, my God, I wish all these people were replaced by computer drivers.'

There's always more demands than there's time to meet them, so it's constantly a matter of trying to balance them

My goal is not to fail fast. My goal is to succeed over the long run. They are not the same thing.

The most important thing is to get on the right horse.
