Mark Zuckerberg:

Right now this all seems like a big deal. Going public is an important milestone in our history. But here's the thing: our mission isn't to be a public company. Our mission is to make the world more open and connected.

In the past eight years, all of you out there have built the largest community in the history of the world. You've done amazing things that we never would have dreamed of and I can't wait to see what you guys all do going forward....

On behalf of everyone at Facebook, I just want to say to all the people out there who use Facebook, our products, thank you....

This is an awesome moment. Remember: stay focused and keep shipping.

马克•扎克伯格：

当下看来，这似乎是一笔大买卖。上市是公司历史上一个重要的里程碑。但问题是：我们的使命并不是成为一家上市公司；而是令世界更加开放，连结更加紧密。

在过去的八年中，正是你们建立了世界历史上最大的社区。你们取得了过去无法想象的辉煌成就，我迫不及待地想看到在未来你们又会些什么。

我想代表Facebook的全体员工，向那些使用我们产品的用户说一声谢谢。

这是一个了不起的时刻。请牢记：保持专注，持续发布。
