The best ideas come as jokes. Make your thinking as funny as possible.
An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea.
I don't care that they stole my idea. I care that they don't have any of their own.
Strong minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, weak minds discuss people.
A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on.
The difficulty lies not so much in developing new ideas as in escaping from old ones.
Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influences, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist.
Be less curious about people and more curious about ideas.
For I am not so enamoured of my own opinions that I disregard what others may think of them.
New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed, without any other reason but because they are not already common.
The value of an idea lies in the using of it.
Ideas are easy. Execution is everything.
You are not your idea, and if you identify too closely with your ideas, you will take offense when they are challenged.
The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire.
The most important breakthroughs come from loonshots, widely dismissed ideas whose champions are often wrong but keep going anyway.
