D3: The Mighty Ducks - Lessons from Ants on Teamwork and Success
Dean Buckley:
You can learn a lot from ants. These Brazilian fire ants can teach you a lot about successful societal structure. Come here. You see there's one queen in there. The rest are dedicated worker ants. Everybody pulls their weight. Nobody complains. There's harmony and growth. Same here at Eden Hall, only you are the workers, the backbone.
Russ:
And you're the queen?

Your best friend is suing you for $600 million.

The Social Network - A Conversation on Attention and Deservingness
Gage:
Mr. Zuckerberg, do I have your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: [stares out the window]
No.
Gage:
Do you think I deserve it?
Mark Zuckerberg: [looks at the lawyer]
What?
Gage:
Do you think I deserve your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg:
I had to swear an oath before we began this deposition, and I don't want to perjure myself, so I have a legal obligation to say no.
Gage:
Okay – no. You don't think I deserve your attention.
Mark Zuckerberg: [pauses]
I think if your clients want to sit on my shoulders and call themselves tall, they have the right to give it a try, but there's no requirement that I enjoy sitting here listening to people lie. You have part of my attention – you have the minimum amount. The rest of my attention is back at the offices of Facebook, where my colleagues and I are doing things that no one in this room, including and especially your clients, are intellectually or creatively capable of doing. Did I adequately answer your condescending question?
