The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Peter Thiel

  • People are spending way too much time thinking about climate change, way too little thinking about AI.
  • The best start-ups might be considered slightly less extreme kinds of cults. The biggest difference is that cults tend to be fanatically wrong about something important. People at a successful start-up are fanatically right about something those outside it have missed.
  • Americans mythologize competition and credit it with saving us from socialist bread lines. Actually, capitalism and competition are opposites. Capitalism is premised on the accumulation of capital, but under perfect competition, all profits get competed away.
  • I had a good experience in college, but I don’t think interdisciplinary education is something that’s stressed very much at all. It’s generally considered to be something of a bad idea.
  • It’s good to test yourself and develop your talents and ambitions as fully as you can and achieve greater success; but I think success is the feeling you get from a job well done, and the key thing is to do the work.
  • If the whole U.S. was like Silicon Valley, we’d be in good shape. But now, the entire U.S. is not driven by technology, is not driven by innovation.
  • Education is a bubble in a classic sense. To call something a bubble, it must be overpriced, and there must be an intense belief in it.
  • ‘Perfect competition’ is considered both the ideal and the default state in Economics 101. So-called perfectly competitive markets achieve equilibrium when producer supply meets consumer demand.
  • I’m not a politician. But neither is Donald Trump. He is a builder, and it’s time to rebuild America.
  • In a world where wealth is growing, you can get away with printing money. Doubling the debt over the next 20 years is not a problem.
