As devices multiply and usage changes, many users coming online today may never use a desktop machine, it becomes more and more important to ensure that people can access all of their stuff anywhere.
Larry Page
You have to combine both things: invention and innovation focus, plus the company that can commercialize things and get them to people.

Larry Page
We understand the need to balance our short- and longer-term needs because our revenue is the engine that funds all our innovation. But over time, our emerging high-usage products will likely generate significant new revenue streams for Google as well as for our partners, just as search does today.
Larry Page
Over time, it's becoming more and more understood by people that we're acting in their interests. And that's a very, very powerful thing for our brand.
Larry Page
Every story I read about Google is about us vs some other company, or something else, and I really don't find that interesting. We should be building great things that don't exist. Being negative is not how we make progress.
Larry Page
For me, privacy and security are really important. We think about it in terms of both: You can't have privacy without security.
Larry Page
Serving our end users is at the heart of what we do and remains our number one priority.
Larry Page
Big companies have always needed and cooperated in areas where it made sense.
Larry Page
I really like using my Samsung (005930:KS) tablet. I previously used the Motorola Xoom for a while and liked that.
Larry Page
You need to get one thing done well, or else you don't have permission to do anything else.
Larry Page
You’re going to have some very amazing capabilities in the economy. When we have computers that can do more and more jobs, it’s going to change how we think about work. There’s no way around that. You can’t wish it away.
Larry Page
People are starving in the world, not because we don't have enough food, but because we're not organized. And computers are part of that.
Larry Page
I have a simple algorithm, which is, wherever you see paid researchers instead of grad students, that's not where you want to be doing research.
Larry Page
We don't have as many managers as we should, but we would rather have too few than too many.
