More quotes by 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
Serving our end users is at the heart of what we do and remains our number one priority.
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
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.

We should be focusing on building things that do not exist.
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.

The Web is a vast collection of completely uncontrolled heterogeneous documents.
Larry Page
You need to invent things and you need to get them to people. You need to commercialize those inventions. Obviously, the best way we've come up with doing that is through companies.
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 have to combine both things: invention and innovation focus, plus the company that can commercialize things and get them to 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
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
I feel like my job as CEO is always to be pushing people ahead.
Larry Page
Big companies have always needed and cooperated in areas where it made sense.
Larry Page
I remember turning in my first assignment in elementary school using the computer and the teachers were kind of confused that I had printed it.
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
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
I really like using my Samsung (005930:KS) tablet. I previously used the Motorola Xoom for a while and liked that.
Larry Page
If we were motivated by money, we would have sold the company a long time ago and ended up on a beach.
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.
