“The absolute secret to Silicon Valley’s Success is Failure.
This place re-invents itself because we know how to fail in the right way.
Silicon Valley was not built on the Spires of earlier successes but on the rumble of earlier failures.
The companies that grew large and then collapsed in a spectacular way.
A bunch of little start-ups colonised their old offices. You see this again and again and again in Silicon Valley.
This place works because we know how to fail.”
