Mark Zuckerberg is the CEO and founder of Facebook and one of the most successful man. In
honor of Zuckerberg's big day and to mark Facebook's decade-long
existence, we've compiled 10 of the tech entrepreneur's most interesting
quotes over the years.
1. "Move fast and break things. Unless you are breaking stuff, you are not moving fast enough."
2. "The question isn't, 'What do we want to know about people?', It's, 'What do people want to tell about themselves?"
3. "I think that people just have this core desire to express who they are. And I think that's always existed."
4. "People can be really smart or have skills that are directly applicable, but if they don’t really believe in it, then they are not going to really work hard.”
5. "The biggest risk is not taking any risk. In a world that's changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks."
6. "My friends are people who like building cool stuff. We always have this joke about people who want to just start companies without making something valuable. There's a lot of that in Silicon Valley."
7. "My goal was never to just create a company. A lot of people misinterpret that, as if I don't care about revenue or profit or any of those things. But what not being just a company means to me is not being just that - building something that actually makes a really big change in the world."
8. "I got my first computer in the 6th grade or so. As soon as I got it, I was interested in finding out how it worked and how the programs worked and then figuring out how to write programs at just deeper and deeper levels within the system."
9. "No one has done a study on this, as far as I can tell, but I think Facebook might be the first place where a large number of people have come out. We didn't create that - society was generally ready for that. I think this is just part of the general trend that we talked about, about society being more open, and I think that's good."
10. "This is a perverse thing, personally, but I would rather be in the cycle where people are underestimating us. It gives us latitude to go out and make big bets that excite and amaze people."
