The way you have to do is what you believe in and what you want to do. And we built a team around that idea. So when you built a team that is terrific who believes in building something really meaningful, you just keep going.

There is a real value in sharing moments that don’t live forever.

You are going to make a lot of mistakes. I’ve already made a ton of them — some of them very publicly — and it will feel terrible, but it will be okay. Just apologize as quickly as you can and pray for forgiveness.

Dare to be different. Often times we do all sorts of silly things to avoid being different but the things that makes us happen are the times we listen to our soul and allow ourselves to be pulled in a different direction.

It’s important to be thoughtful and mindful about the things you say to other people.

I think everyone is born creative but it can be suppressed by fear.

It’s not about working harder, it;s about working the system.

Conforming happens so naturally that we can forget how powerful it is – we want to be accepted by our peers – we want to be a part of the group. It’s in our biology. But the things that make us human are those times we listen to the whispers of our soul and allow ourselves to be pulled in another direction

On perseverance: “In times of despair, you may believe the cynic who tells you that one person cannot make difference – and there are times it may be hard to see your own impact. I beg you to remember that it is not possible at this time or any time to know the end results of our efforts.

Everyone is born very, very, very creative, but at some point it can be scary to try to do something new, that feels different.

Age doesn’t really matter. The first prototype of Snapchat launched when he was merely 21, and Snapchat became wildly successful just a year later. He joined the Forbes 400 at age 25, and became the world’s youngest billionaire.

If at first you don’t succeed, try and try again. As an entrepreneur, you can’t be deterred by the idea of failure.

It’s okay to say no to money. Evan turned down several investors who tried to buy Snapchat because he believes in his self, his partners, and his hard-works.

Spiegel being asked, “When did you know that you wanted to start a company? What drove you to have that purpose?” Spiegel replied, “A lot of it is not wanting to work for anyone else. My dad had to cancel vacations and he got called from work. I used to thought that when I grow-up, I want to be the guy on the phone.”

Avoid standard terms Standard is really a code for “I have no idea what I am talking about.”

It’s not about the degree, it’s about the experience.

Evan Spiegel was asked a question from audience, “Do you think anyone can start a company?” His answer was simple and to the point, “Absolutely. If I can, you can.”

Evan Spiegel’s Way Of Doing Business. 1st one is the power of simplicity which is exactly what a customer wants. 2nd one is that despite all the success,he remained true to the principles with which he started the company. He did not allow himself to be lured here and there loosing sense of his pioneering principles.

Build a foundation for those who come after you. We must welcome those who come after us, and accept that while we have a part to play in building their success, we must also concede to their new ideas and conceptions.

Failure is inevitable and no one has the answers. It’s so true that often the biggest lessons in our careers are accepting the learning curve of failure and the acknowledging that you don’t know all of the answers, and are not expected to.

When you wear the weed of impatience in your heart instead of the flower Acceptance-with-Joy, you will always find your enemies get an advantage over you.

Color helps to express light not the physical phenomenon but the only light that really exists that in the artists brain.

Do I wish I could retire? Sure, but that's not life.

Few men would dare to read their own autobiography if all their deeds were recorded in it; few can look back upon their entire career without a blush.

I think Frank Ocean is a talented artist; I think he's created material that made me know his name, that impressed me, with things he said on a song like 'Novacane.'

And as far as false hope there is no such thing. There is only hope or the absence of hope nothing else.

I can't imagine my life without doing theater.

I think I could have become an outstanding professional baseball player, but I don't think I could have reached the heights that I have in football - being one of the very top players in the game, being a world champion.

I am confident.

I really admire people who are extraordinarily tolerant and patient.

There are mystically in our faces certain characters which carry in them the motto of our souls, wherein he that cannot read A, B, C may read our natures.

Did I kill anyone?

Staring down the barrel of a gun is the scariest thing you could ever experience. It's not funny. It's not for the movies.

Whenever the government of the United States shall break up, it will probably be in consequence of a false direction having been given to public opinion.

I think sometimes I guess you see records, say you want to get there and use that as motivation. In a way, it's kind of cool if there is a possibility to rewrite history and be up there with the greats of Olympic history.

'The Girls' tells the story of Rose and Ruby Darlen, who are not only literally but spiritually attached for eternity. Born joined at the head in 1974 to a feckless teenage mother who abandons them, and reared by a delightfully open-minded adoptive couple, the Darlen girls are darling girls, indeed.

What is human life The first third a good time the rest remembering about it.

You know those award shows. The cliche is that it's an honor just to be nominated, but that happens to be true. Whoever wins it in the end, I don't know, sometimes it feels arbitrary. Sometimes it feels like it's deserving.

Home is any four walls that enclose the right person.

One thing leads to another.

We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.

Better than any argument is to rise at dawn and pick dew-wet red berries in a cup.
