It's not because of the amount of money. For me and my colleagues, the most important thing is that we create an open information flow for people. Having media corporations owned by conglomerates is just not an attractive idea to me.

I would only hire someone to work directly for me if I was willing to work for that person.

I try to shrug it off as a minor annoyance that whenever I do something successful, every capitalist out there wants a piece of the action.

While we generally believe in free speech and giving everyone as much ability to speak as possible, in practice there are lots of barriers to that, whether it's legal restrictions, technological restrictions or you can't share what you want if you don't have access to the internet.

The point of Facebook isn't the features, it's the people.

People think innovation is just having a good idea but a lot of it is just moving quickly and trying a lot of things.

If the original Facebook was the first five minutes [of a conversation] and the stream was the next 15, what I want to show you today is the rest-the next few hours of a deep engaging conversation.
