We didn't want to waste time by sending our volunteers to Republicans; we sent them to the undecided.
Quote by -Harper Reed
Presidential campaign and White House are two aggressively separate things. They still think I'm the weird kid in the corner, so I don't have much power. But I'll definitely do something to help.
Quote by -Harper Reed
Ten Internets ago, when PayPal was started, it was all these tools that no one had built yet to bring commerce to the Internet. My first startup used PayPal.
Quote by -Harper Reed
I read a lot of books. I read because it inspires me and shows me paths that I could never imagine. Sometimes those paths are horrible and sad, and sometimes they are hopeful and amazing. Not always are they paths to the future, and sometimes the paths are actually about the past but make sense when applied to the future. Books are amazing.
Quote by -Harper Reed
When I look for new books, I often struggle to find things that challenge and entertain me. This has caused me to spend a number of cycles thinking about where I can get the serendipitous book discovery experience that we had in physical book stores.
Quote by -Harper Reed
When you go from building T-shirts to software for a presidential campaign used by a cast of millions, it's pretty easy to think, 'OK, we can build something pretty big.'
Quote by -Harper Reed
We make interesting companies and real businesses. It's not social networks for cats.
Quote by -Harper Reed
In New York City, they have their own way of doing things. Every city and every region should do its own thing.
Quote by -Harper Reed
The advice I used to give to engineers I hired was, 'Don't eat the pizza.' Sometimes when you walk into these high-pressure environments, it's, like, doughnuts everywhere and all these little cakes.
Quote by -Harper Reed
Don't eat the pizza; get lots of sleep - you have to take care of yourself. It's about being your tip top self at all times, and if you are unhealthy, or you're sick, or you don't feel good, even it's just because you're sluggish, you're not going to make it because you're not going to be able to react to things.
Quote by -Harper Reed
One of the things that I used to make sure I'd do was to always make sure I'd have dinner at home because I needed that disconnect from work. Even when it was crazy, I'd go home at, like, 10 o'clock and have dinner. That way, I had time where I could decompress a little bit and then go back in.
Quote by -Harper Reed
Let's say we were a peacekeeping force in some small country that most people had never heard of. And we were there to host a peaceful election, and we then found out a bunch of stuff was hacked. We probably would push to have another election to make sure that would be fair.
Quote by -Harper Reed
Donald Trump won the election. I think that's true. I also think there was interference. If this was another country, I think we'd be demanding another election.
Quote by -Harper Reed
My biggest worry is that no one seems to notice that we are not going to stop the technical progress that is going to continue to displace people through automation.
Quote by -Harper Reed
Security is very difficult. You have to be very careful about security, and I think oftentimes people just forget; they don't invest in the right things.
Quote by -Harper Reed
My parents are very supportive: they helped redirect my technology attitude and my punkness into positive things.
Quote by -Harper Reed
One of my favourite books about hackers is 'Masters of Deception' about this hacking group in the 1990s. Many of them didn't come from wealthy families. These are kids that are very intelligent; they just happen to be misdirected.
Quote by -Harper Reed
The information diet of a senior campaign staffer is insane. We were all addicted to our chosen email delivery devices and were aggressively tethered to them. It made sense and wasn't an issue during the campaign because of the importance of the situation. However, once the campaign was over and we were successful, the information flow dried up.
Quote by -Harper Reed
The atheist market is a very overlooked and powerful market, it turns out.
Quote by -Stefan Sagmeister
The flakier your mission, the fiercer you have to be on the business side.
Quote by -Stefan Sagmeister
In my business, you should be very strong in mind. You have to be sure about yourself and about your work and your career, and you have to be strong inside because so many people come around and try to say bad things about you.
Quote by -Irina Shayk
The world is not black and white; there are lots of shades of grey. There are good things and bad things in every era, and I think it's kind of very blindfolded to say one era was wonderful, as it was wonderful, but there were a lot of bad things as well.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
When you don't dress like everybody else, you don't have to think like everybody else.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
I think some people like me because I'm different. I don't think like everybody else. People are so tied up in the worst parts of technology these days. They live a life pressing buttons. They don't use their imaginations.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
The White House is the people's house. When you do historical restoration, that must be what it is.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
If you don't learn constantly, you don't grow, and you will wither. Too many people wither on the vine. Sure, it gets a little harder as you get older, but new experiences and new challenges keep it fresh.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
You have to push yourself when you're older because it's very easy to fall into the trap. You start to fall apart - you just have to do your best to paste yourself together. I think doing things and being active is very important. When your mind is busy, you don't hurt so much.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
I'd rather go to a flea market than just about anything. It's the process I like - the same with getting dressed. If I've got someplace to be, I'll spend more time getting dressed than I spent at the actual event. Sometimes. Even in my own closet, I love to dig and search and find.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
I'm not a pretty person. I don't like pretty, so I don't feel badly. Most of the world is not with me, but I don't care.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
I think people should express themselves more and not just buy what's in. While it can be very beautiful, and it may suit you perfectly, I'm sure it doesn't suit everyone in the same way. I like people who express themselves and are more individualistic.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
I had the good fortune to be able to take a course with Margaret Mead. I had a fabulous art course, where it was explained to me that nothing exists in a vacuum, that everything is a result of the period in which it's done - the economics, the sociology, the politics, all sewn together. That was a very important lesson.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
You can change the look of an outfit so easily by changing the kind of jewellery you wear. If you have a basic outfit on - a black sweater and skirt or a simple black dress - you can go from the office to a cocktail party at night just by changing your jewellery. It helps if you change your shoes as well.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
I was in art school since I was five years old. I've always been to art school. Everything that's happened to me, nothing's been planned. I've never had a business plan. I just kind of fell into it, and I liked it, and I took a chance. I took a lot of chances in my life.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
I still have the dress I wore on the first date with my husband, which was more than 66 years ago. I still have it, and it still fits.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
I don't expect to find inspiration. It just sort of comes. Sometimes you step on a bug and you get inspired.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
In America, it has been proven that the bulk of spending money is in the hands of women between 60 and 80, so it's so stupid. The people who do have the time and money to shop are either retired or empty-nesters.
Quote by -Iris Apfel
I don't happen to approve of plastic surgery. I think God put plastic surgeons on this earth for good reasons - people get burned or people might have a nose like Pinocchio and that has to be fixed. But to just chop yourself up to look a few years younger? You could come out looking like a Picasso picture.
