If you ask an economist what’s driven economic growth, it’s been major advances in things that mattered - the mechanization of farming, mass manufacturing, things like that. The problem is, our society is not organized around doing that.

You can be serious without a suit
Larry Page
We try to, when you come to Google, fulfill that need that you have as quickly as possible.
Larry Page
The amazing thing is that we're part of people's daily lives, like brushing their teeth. It's just something they do throughout the day while working, buying things, deciding what to do after work and much more. Google has been accepted as part of people's lives.
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
I feel like my job as CEO is always to be pushing people ahead.
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
If you’re not doing some things that are crazy, then you’re doing the wrong things.
Larry Page
Being negative is not how we make progress, and the most important things are not zero sum.
Larry Page
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
Our mission is to organize the world's information. Clearly, the more information we have when we do a search, the better it's going to work.
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
Computing is kind of a mess. Your computer doesn't know where you are. It doesn't know what you're doing. It doesn't know what you know.
Larry Page
The Star Trek computer doesn't seem that interesting. They ask it random questions, it thinks for a while. I think we can do better than that.
Larry Page
Almost everyone who has had an idea that's somewhat revolutionary or wildly successful was first told they're insane.
Larry Page
If you say you want to automate cars and save people's lives, the skills you need for that aren't taught in any particular discipline. I know - I was interested in working on automating cars when I was a Ph.D. student in 1995.
Larry Page
We really care about our brand. We really want it to stand for high quality. We want people to be excited about it, for it to be fun.
Larry Page
The ultimate search engine would basically understand everything in the world, and it would always give you the right thing. And we're a long, long ways from that.
Larry Page
You may think using Google's great, but I still think it's terrible.
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
Part of our brand is that we're pretty understated in what we do. If you look at other technology companies, they might preannounce things, and it will be a couple years before they really happen, and they don't happen in the way they said they would.
