You have to combine both things: invention and innovation focus, plus the company that can commercialize things and get them to people.

More quotes by Larry Page
The Web is a vast collection of completely uncontrolled heterogeneous documents.
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 changing the world, you're working on important things. You're excited to get up in the morning.
Larry Page
We should be focusing on building things that do not exist.
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 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
We don't have as many managers as we should, but we would rather have too few than too many.
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
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
If we were motivated by money, we would have sold the company a long time ago and ended up on a beach.
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
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 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.
Larry Page
Almost everyone who has had an idea that's somewhat revolutionary or wildly successful was first told they're insane.
Larry Page
You may think using Google's great, but I still think it's terrible.
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
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
Being negative is not how we make progress, and the most important things are not zero sum.
Larry Page
Serving our end users is at the heart of what we do and remains our number one priority.
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
