I think Facebook's biggest problem is the glut of information that Facebook's power users are overwhelmed with.

The leader of a company needs to have a decision tree in his head - if this happens, we go this way, but if it winds up like that, then we go this other way.

A million dollars isn’t cool. You know what’s cool? A billion dollars.

It would be incredibly presumptuous and self-serving of me to believe that Facebook was the end of history. The only way it could possibly be the end of history is if it becomes some sort of artificial super intelligence that takes over the world.

My interactions with Sorkin were agonisingly weird. He is by far the weirdest person I have ever met. I had dinner with him and a few hours before I got an e-mail from his assistant saying, 'Sean, this does not need to be a long conversation. Aaron is only going to use it to win your trust.'

I think the perception of wealth and power is that things just become easier and easier when in reality as you raise the stakes things become more stressful.

I had a desire to prove to myself that I was actually in control - that I wasnt a puppet.
