More quotes by Eric Schmidt
Do not be afraid to fail, but also, do not be afraid to succeed.
Eric Schmidt
If you thought when you got your job at 20 that it would never change you were misinformed. Retrain yourself to be curious.
Eric Schmidt
We're about to see an acceleration in technological platforms that, for marketers, will be on a scale rivalled only by the arrival of color TV.
Eric Schmidt
The characteristic of great innovators and great companies is they see a space that others do not. They don't just listen to what people tell them they actually invent something new, something that you didn't know you needed, but the moment you see it, you say, 'I must have it.'
Eric Schmidt
The thing that people seem to miss about not just Google, but also our competitors, Yahoo, eBay and so forth, is that there's an awful lot of communities that have never been served by traditional media.
Eric Schmidt
We know where you are. We know where you've been. We can more or less know what you're thinking about.

I believe that this notion of self-publishing, which is what Blogger and blogging are really about, is the next big wave of human communication. The last big wave was Web activity. Before that one it was e-mail. Instant messaging was an extension of e-mail, real-time e-mail.
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
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.
Eric Schmidt
In a networked world, trust is the most important currency.
Eric Schmidt
One of the unintended negative consequences of online advertising has been the loss of value in traditional classifieds. It's simply quicker, simply easier for an end user who's online, on a broadband connection, to look things up and to figure out what they want to buy.
Eric Schmidt
There clearly are cases where evil people exist, but you don't have to violate the privacy of every single citizen of America to find them.
Eric Schmidt
Washington is an incumbent protection machine. Technology is fundamentally disruptive.
Eric Schmidt
The issues of wireless versus wireline gets very messy. And that's really an FCC issue, not a Google issue.
Eric Schmidt
I've never met a person who does not want a safer world, better medical care and education for their children, and peace with their neighbours. I just don't meet those people. What I meet, over and over again, as I travel around, is that the essential human condition is optimistic - in every one of these places.
Eric Schmidt
The coach doesn't have to play the sport as well as you do. They have to watch you and get you to be your best.
Eric Schmidt
There's been spying for years, there's been surveillance for years, and so forth, I'm not going to pass judgement on that, it's the nature of our society.
Eric Schmidt
You can understand Tunisia revolution as a failure to censor the internet. And Libya had that failure too. It's very difficult for governments that are autocratic and don't have broad popular support to be in power when a lot of people have these devices. That was what Arab Spring was about, that people could express this and lead to revolution.
Eric Schmidt
I think of Google as a set of overlapping things. It's a consumer platform, consumer phenomenon of which search is its fundamental activity, but there are many other things you can do than search... I think of Google as an advertising company who services the broader advertising industry in the ways that you know.
Eric Schmidt
We want to make sure the thing you're looking for is on Google 100 percent of the time.
