For me, privacy and security are really important. We think about it in terms of both: You can't have privacy without security.

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
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
Being negative is not how we make progress, and the most important things are not zero sum.
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
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
As we transition from one screen to multiscreens, Google has enormous opportunities to innovate and drive ever higher monetization. Just like Search in 2000.
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
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
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
If you’re not doing some things that are crazy, then you’re doing the wrong things.
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
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
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
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 we were motivated by money, we would have sold the company a long time ago and ended up on a beach.
Larry Page
We don't have as many managers as we should, but we would rather have too few than too many.
Larry Page
The Web is a vast collection of completely uncontrolled heterogeneous documents.
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 have to combine both things: invention and innovation focus, plus the company that can commercialize things and get them to people.
