Seriously, just do yourself a favor and check the above clips. Also you should seriously read his book Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future. The following is a bunch of quotes to give you enough reasons to check out the book

“Brilliant thinking is rare, but courage is in even shorter supply than genius.”

“The most contrarian thing of all is not to oppose the crowd but to think for yourself.”

“If your product requires advertising or salespeople to sell it, it’s not good enough: technology is primarily about product development, not distribution.”

“Tolstoy opens Anna Karenina by observing: “All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” Business is the opposite. All happy companies are different: each one earns a monopoly by solving a unique problem. All failed companies are the same: they failed to escape competition.”

“Every moment in business happens only once. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. And the next Mark Zuckerberg won’t create a social network. If you are copying these guys, you aren’t learning from them.”
