More quotes by Larry Page
Big companies have always needed and cooperated in areas where it made sense.
Larry Page
Almost everyone who has had an idea that's somewhat revolutionary or wildly successful was first told they're insane.
Larry Page
We don't have as many managers as we should, but we would rather have too few than too many.
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
You may think using Google's great, but I still think it's terrible.
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
If we are not trusted, we have no business.
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.
Larry Page
We try to, when you come to Google, fulfill that need that you have as quickly as possible.
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
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
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
Basically, our goal is to organize the world's information and to make it universally accessible and useful.
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
Especially in technology, we need revolutionary change, not incremental change.
Larry Page
Excellence matters, and technology advances so fast that the potential for improvement is tremendous. So, since becoming CEO again, I've pushed hard to increase our velocity, improve our execution, and focus on the big bets that will make a difference in the world.
Larry Page
We believe strongly that in the long term, we will be better served - as shareholders and in all other ways - by a company that does good things for the world even if we forgo some short term gains. This is an important aspect of our culture and is broadly shared within the company.
Larry Page
Technology should do the hard work so people can do the things that make them the happiest in life.
Larry Page
Find the leverage in the world so you can be truly lazy.
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
