Susan Cain

It's never a good idea to organize society in a way that depletes the energy of half the population. We discovered this with women decades ago, and now it's time to realize it with introverts.

Any time people come together in a meeting, we're not necessarily getting the best ideas; we're just getting the ideas of the best talkers.

Opposites attract, and I think temperament is so fundamental that you end up craving someone of the opposite temperament to complete you.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

It is good to be in front of the lens to appreciate more being behind the lens.

I actually find extroversion to be a really appealing personality style.
