Facebook is who you used to know; Twitter is who you want to know and things you want to know more about.
Quote by -Chris Rock
There simply isn't a way to do the show without investing in a bunch more companies.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I am retiring from startup investing. It's hard to leave all this behind right when things are going so well.
Quote by -Chris Rock
Twitter can afford to build the wrong things. However, Twitter cannot afford to build the right things too slowly.
Quote by -Chris Rock
All broadcasts on Periscope need to be archived for playback permanently, unless the broadcaster chooses to delete the recording. So many treasured moments have been shared on Periscope only to vanish a day later.
Quote by -Chris Rock
Make tweets effortless to enjoy, make it easier for all to participate, and make each of us on Twitter feel heard and valuable.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I believe there is no natural ceiling on the revenue Twitter can generate. I also believe that Twitter's reach can become more pervasive and its impact on the world more meaningful.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I want to make clear that my feedback comes from a place of loyalty and persistent gratitude. I love Twitter.
Quote by -Chris Rock
You can't necessarily tell when watching at home, but those pitches are usually an hour long each, and many are emotional, hilarious, and inspiring.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I think the institutions, principles, norms, and traditions that make the United States of America genuinely exceptional are at serious risk. It has been hard to think about anything else.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I find talented, driven, boundlessly ambitious people and help them solve problems that will hopefully improve the lives of millions. Sometimes this means investing in startup founders. Other times, it involves helping organize and fundraise for charity or politics.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I don't drink coffee. Weird, I know. But I try to stay away from caffeine. That said, we are investors in Blue Bottle, which is delicious!
Quote by -Chris Rock
Live Twitter can be built right into the main Twitter app, but it should certainly have its own tab so we can concentrate on the live experience free of distraction.
Quote by -Chris Rock
Just don't spend your money, and you're well on your way to becoming a millionaire.
Quote by -Chris Rock
People get out ahead of themselves in debt with spending on all of their desires. But if you learn to live pretty simply and well, well under your means, you feel incredibly, incredibly rich, and that frees you up and gives you the option to start something new, to leave the job you're not excited about, where there might be a glass ceiling on you.
Quote by -Chris Rock
When you see a 'Shark fight' erupt, we aggressively want to understand what we are committing our money toward.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I had a blast. 'Shark Tank' embodies the American Dream. If you watch the show at home, you find yourself constantly hollering at the Sharks. Being able to sit next to them and call them out in real time was quite a privilege.
Quote by -Chris Rock
The Sharks step right on each other's questions, and if I ever did that in Silicon Valley, I would be considered a pariah. I literally had to learn how to interrupt.
Quote by -Chris Rock
It would be a lot cheaper for me not to have to raise tens of millions of dollars to elect progressive candidates who will raise my taxes.
Quote by -Chris Rock
The only way I know to be awesome at startups is to be obsessively focused and pegged to the floor of the deep end, gasping for air.
Quote by -Chris Rock
You probably know me as a producer for 'This American Life', a top podcast in iTunes.
Quote by -Chris Rock
How can you build something for someone else if you don't have enough familiarity with them to imagine the world through their eyes?
Quote by -Chris Rock
Silicon Valley today is populated mostly by people who would consider themselves winners of the traditional race. This causes the exclusion of the voices that are vital to a round, robust society. It's beyond gentrification.
Quote by -Chris Rock
The old economy with careers and benefits and pensions is gone. There are scary implications to that.
Quote by -Chris Rock
Planet colonization is not a short term concern of mine. The physical limitations of space travel render it low on the list for me.
Quote by -Chris Rock
It is very hip to be an angel investor now. There used to be a dozen, two dozen guys at these demo days writing checks. Now there are hundreds.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I may be the only shark who hasn't been on QVC, but I have learned a lot from those folks about what it takes to get a product on store shelves.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I really do see the sharks evolving their perspective. In the early days of the show, if you brough them an app, they would've turned their noses up. But now they know how indispensable those apps are, even to their own traditional businesses.
Quote by -Chris Rock
Uber is a better company with better math, better predictive supply, better brand, lower pickup times, higher quality of service. They'll absolutely win.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I'm good at what I do and still improving as I learn from mentors, founders, partners, friends, family, strangers, my own investors, and the experience itself.
Quote by -Chris Rock
The better I get at investing in and helping companies, the result is more founders who are excited to work with me and more of my wonderful limited partners insisting I take piles of their loot to keep it all going.
Quote by -Chris Rock
One of my rules for investing is, I don't invest in a deal where I don't think I have an unfair advantage and where I don't think I can personally impact the outcome.
Quote by -Chris Rock
Shark Tank's participatory. There's so many people on Twitter for this show, and they all feel like they're in the tank, making calls on this stuff.
Quote by -Chris Rock
Once my ears were open to hearing mentions of 'Shark Tank', I was surprised by how many people in our world, even in our industry, tech and finance, loved the show.
Quote by -Chris Rock
I've learned that it's often the less obvious, yet pervasive and questionable, everyday behaviors of men in our industry that collectively make it inhospitable for women.
Quote by -Chris Rock
In social settings, under the guise of joking, being collegial, flirting, or having a good time, I undoubtedly caused some women to question themselves, retreat, feel alone, and worry they can't be their authentic selves.
Quote by -Chris Rock
The day after Donald Trump was elected, Chinese business leaders, including the heads of Baidu, stood up and gave a speech saying, 'Come to China and build your company now.' The cognitive dissonance of that was amazing for some of us to think we might be losing our leadership role in building companies.
