I worry that the level of interrupt, the sort of overwhelming rapidity of information — and especially of stressful information — is in fact affecting cognition. It is in fact affecting deeper thinking. I still believe that sitting down and reading a book is the best way to really learn something. And I worry that we’re losing that.

Eric Schmidt
In a networked world, trust is the most important currency.
Eric Schmidt
Even though Google may do very well, there will always be an alternative to what Google is doing, and people will always have the free choice... because there's no way for us to prevent them from exercising that choice. That is one of the key aspects of why the Internet has been so successful. No technologies can dominate.
Eric Schmidt
The more broadband we can get globally, the better. It's better for the world it's better for our advertisers it's better for Google.
Eric Schmidt
I used to say that you'll have 10 IP address on your body... and it looks like that's going to happen through medical monitoring.
Eric Schmidt
When you use Google, do you get more than one answer? Of course you do. Well, that's a bug. We have more bugs per second in the world. We should be able to give you the right answer just once. We should know what you meant.
Eric Schmidt
There is a science to managing high tech businesses, and it needs to be respected. One of them is that in technology businesses, leadership is temporary. It's constantly recycling. So the asset has limited lifetime.
Eric Schmidt
Ultimately, in the Internet, openness has always won. I cannot imagine that the current competitive environment would reverse that.
Eric Schmidt
It's very difficult for governments to dominate the Internet because it's so difficult to control. People want to be free. People want to hear multiple voices. They want to make their own decisions. And people who see things will report things.

Brands are the solution, not the problem. Brands are how you sort out the cesspool.
