• Reading is merely a surrogate for thinking for yourself; it means letting someone else direct your thoughts. Many books, moreover, serve merely to show how many ways there are of being wrong, and how far astray you yourself would go if you followed their guidance. You should read only when your own thoughts dry up, which will of course happen frequently enough even to the best heads; but to banish your own thoughts so as to take up a book is a sin against the holy ghost; it is like deserting untrammeled nature to look at a herbarium or engravings of landscapes.

• La población tiene miedo al cambio, porque su condicionamiento presupone una identidad estática, y cuestionar el sistema de creencias suele dar lugar a insultos y aprensión, porque equivocarse se asocia erróneamente con el fracaso. Cuando, en realidad, que te demuestren que estás equivocado es algo que debería celebrarse, ya que eleva a alguien a un nuevo nivel de comprensión.

• In really good companies, you have to lead. You have to come up with big ideas and express them forcefully. I have always been encouraged -- or sometimes forced -- to confront the very natural fear of being wrong. I was constantly pushed to find out what I really thought and then to speak up. Over time, I came to see that waiting to discover which way the wind was blowing is an excellent way to learn how to be a follower.

• We would like you to reach the place where you're not willing to listen to people criticize one another... where you take no satisfaction from somebody being wrong... where it matters to you so much that you feel good, that you are only willing to think positive things about people... you are only willing to look for positive aspects; you are only willing to look for solutions, and you are not willing to beat the drum of all of the problems of the world.

• El marketing de búsqueda, y de hecho la mayor parte del marketing en Internet, puede ser muy amenazador porque no hay reglas. No hay refugio seguro. Para hacerlo bien, hay que estar dispuesto a equivocarse. Pero el marketing de buscadores bien hecho consiste en equivocarse. La experimentación es el único camino. Nadie sabe realmente si esa página ocupará el primer puesto en Google; nadie sabe realmente qué texto de búsqueda de pago obtendrá el mayor porcentaje de clics. Ni siquiera los expertos pueden decirte qué contenido atraerá más enlaces. Sólo tienes que probar y ver.

• Separate yourself from your ideas and your work and see them as something separate from yourself, you’ll feel you truly have the right to be wrong. If an idea fails, why not let it be the idea’s fault instead of your own? Allow your ideas to fail without turning them into personal defeat. When you fail you discover your boundaries. You map out the edges of your capabilities. And this allows you to eventually move beyond them. Being wrong eventually leads to being right. And even where it doesn’t, it’s still a more interesting path than being nothing.

• The problem in this case was you can't be a middle-aged virgin in America without something being wrong with you. People can't conceive of a virtue in someone else that they can't conceive in themselves. Instead of believing you're stronger, it's so much easier to imagine you're weaker.
