Innovation is taking two things that already exist and putting them together in a new way.

I always imagined myself somehow as an electron around some atom, and you're just, like, bouncing around and spinning. There was a never-ending supply of places to go, people to see, things to do, and fitting it all in became kind of an art.

People often say that a bad event is a 'blessing in disguise.' Trust me, experience will teach you that some are unbelievably well disguised. Everyone gets fired, or decides to make a radical change at some point. Everyone suffers setbacks.

Sometimes I just like the feeling of being a minority and seeing how far you can push yourself in extreme circumstances.

If you look at the Internet, it's been hard for a lot of the traditional media companies to launch viable brands.

There's almost nothing that distracts you from your day-to-day problems more than a trip. You're totally consumed in the present, you've got new sense impressions, you've got all this stuff to digest.

Only true love can fuel the hard work that awaits you.
