More quotes by 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
You never lose a dream, it just incubates as a hobby.
Larry Page
We have a mantra: don't be evil, which is to do the best things we know how for our users, for our customers, for everyone. So I think if we were known for that, it would be a wonderful thing.
Larry Page
Technology should do the hard work so people can do the things that make them the happiest in life.
Larry Page
Many leaders of big organizations, I think, don't believe that change is possible. But if you look at history, things do change, and if your business is static, you're likely to have issues.
Larry Page
You may think using Google's great, but I still think it's terrible.
Larry Page
Most of us carry at least one device, all the time, every day. In fact many of us would feel naked without our smartphone. It's hardly surprising mobile search queries - and mobile commerce - are growing dramatically across the world.
Larry Page
You can try to control people, or you can try to have a system that represents reality. I find that knowing what's really happening is more important than trying to control people.
Larry Page
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.
Larry Page
Big companies have always needed and cooperated in areas where it made sense.
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
If you’re not doing some things that are crazy, then you’re doing the wrong things.
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 Web is a vast collection of completely uncontrolled heterogeneous documents.
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
Optimism is important. You have to be a little silly about the goals you are going to set. There is a phrase I learned in college called, 'having a healthy disregard for the impossible.' That is a really good phrase. You should try to do things that most people would not do.
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
We should be focusing on building things that do not exist.
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.
