Last week was the world's largest software conference hosted by Salesforce. 160,000 people attended in San Francisco and 10m people watched online. CEOs from Microsoft, Box, Uber and YouTube spoke as well as celebrity activists such as Goldie Hawn, Jessica Alba and Adrian Grenier. Here's a few of my favourite quotes from the conference.

“It’s not about the religion
it’s about the relationship. It’s not about the talking about it, it’s about the doing it”. Stevie Wonder
“A lot of what Marc
and I do is amplify what is going on with employees. I was listening to the voices and thinking, ‘What can I do?’”. Parker Harris @parkerharris
“Marketers shoud cancel all their
programs and only re-start them if they can answer ‘Why are we doing this?’”. Scott McCorkle @smccorkle
“It’s not CRM. But it
is. It’s many things. But it’s one thing”. Marc Benioff @benioff
“The way I measure my
life is, ‘Am I better than I was last year?’”. Satya Nadella @satyanadella
“’I don’t know’ is not
an answer. Rejection makes you more determined”. JessicaAlba @jesiccaalba
“Don’t feel stupid if you
don’t like what everyone else pretends to like”. Patricia Arquette @pattyarquette
“My theory is that if
you look confident you can pull off anything, even if you have no idea what you are doing”. JessicaAlba @jesiccaalba
“When you don’t care what
people think of you, it frees you up to do lots of things”. Kara Swisher @karaswisher
“Things are always changing. Part
of being successful is being comfortable with not knowing what’s going to happen”. Susan Wojcicki @susaswojcicki
“People asked me what I
wanted to be when I grew up? I told them I wanted to be happy”. Goldie Hawn @goldiehawn
“The key to winning the
race is not to compete against machines but to compete with machines”. Andrew McAfee @amcafee
“Technology is a gift of
God. After the gift of life it is perhaps the greatest of God’s gifts. It is the mother of civilizations, of arts and of sciences”. Freeman Dyson
“There is a difference between
offering a service and being willing to serve. They both include giving, but only one is generous”. Simon Sinek @SimonSinek
“Humans will always beat machines
because they understand the art (and emotion) of collaboration, persuasion and conversation”. Andrew McAfee @amcafee
“We have to understand that
each of us are dependent on each other to reach our goals”. Rick Welts @rickwelts
