Your network is the people who want to help you, and you want to help them, and that's really powerful.

The network is opening up some amazing possibilities for us to reinvent content, reinvent collaboration.

Whether we appreciate it or not, we live out our lives surrounded by an intricate pattern of social connections... We're all embedded in this network; it affects us profoundly and we may be unaware of its existence, of its effect on us.

What I'm saying is individuals have better ideas if they're connected to rich, diverse networks of other individuals. If you put yourself in an environment with lots of different perspectives, you yourself are going to have better, sharper, more original ideas. It's not that the network is smart.

Just because we say networks are important doesn't mean that networks explain everything. We're just adding additional information. Networks don't work like a match - they work like a magnifying glass.

The Internet is a collective hallucination: one of the best humanity has ever generated.

The nature of having ideas and creativity is incredibly inspiring.

There is inspiration all around us.

What the Internet is great at is building networks.

The reason we form networks is because the benefits of a connected life outweigh the costs. It's to our advantage as individuals and a species to assemble ourselves in this fashion.
