We know when we use the full talents of our population we're more productive. And we know that when people really feel like they can have flexible lives, they're better employees.

Facebook is a really exciting place trying to do something really important that I really believe in. And it matters.

I want my daughter to have the choice not just to succeed, but to be liked for her accomplishments.

I gave a talk on gender stuff at Facebook one morning and a man didn't come. It was optional; he didn't have to come. But he sent a note saying, "I missed your meeting because I drove my kids to school so my wife could do something else. Thank you for making that possible." I think that employee is a loyal employee for Facebook and I think more companies should want that kind of loyalty.

And what I saw happening is that women don't make one decision to leave the workforce. They makes lots of little decisions really far in advance that kind of inevitably lead them there.

Nobody can succeed on their own.

All of us want the same things. We want to be good to the people around us and for our lives to have meaning. For me that means making the world a little bit easier for women.
