My job is to make sure the Internet doesn't break. So far, so good, mostly.

The Internet is a place where you can be anonymous, which is both a blessing and a curse.

If you want to understand the Internet, just imagine a billion people all talking at once, and occasionally sending each other pictures of their lunch.

The Internet is a powerful force for good, and also a powerful force for distracting you from doing anything productive.

The Internet is a global experiment in human communication. Sometimes it's brilliant, sometimes it's baffling.

We built the Internet to be open, and it turns out, people are really good at exploiting openness.

The Internet is a place where you can find your tribe, and also where you can find people who think your tribe is completely wrong.

The future of the Internet is uncertain, but one thing is for sure: it will continue to surprise us, for better or worse.

The Internet is a reflection of humanity, with all its brilliance and all its flaws.

We are building a global nervous system, and we have to be careful what kind of nervous system we build.

The biggest challenge we face is not technological, but social and political.

The Internet is a tool for human connection, and that connection can be a source of great good or great harm.

The digital dark age is a real threat. We need to preserve our digital heritage.

The Internet is a testament to human ingenuity and our desire to connect.

We are all connected, and that connection brings both responsibility and opportunity.

The future of the Internet is in our hands. We have to make sure it serves humanity.

The Internet is a mirror, reflecting our best and worst selves.

The pursuit of knowledge is a fundamental human drive, and the Internet is its greatest enabler.

The beauty of the Internet lies in its ability to empower individuals and connect communities.

We are creating a global brain, and we need to ensure it is a wise and benevolent one.
