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

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

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
We don't have as many managers as we should, but we would rather have too few than too many.
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
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
If you say you want to automate cars and save people's lives, the skills you need for that aren't taught in any particular discipline. I know - I was interested in working on automating cars when I was a Ph.D. student in 1995.
Larry Page
I feel like my job as CEO is always to be pushing people ahead.
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
You don't need to have a 100-person company to develop that idea.
Larry Page
We have always believed that it's possible to make money without being evil.
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
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
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
If you're changing the world, you're working on important things. You're excited to get up in the morning.
