More quotes by 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
You can be serious without a suit
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
You need to get one thing done well, or else you don't have permission to do anything else.
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
If we are not trusted, we have no business.
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
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 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
We should be focusing on building things that do not exist.
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
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 you’re not doing some things that are crazy, then you’re doing the wrong things.
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
Basically, our goal is to organize the world's information and to make it universally accessible and useful.
Larry Page
Especially in technology, we need revolutionary change, not incremental change.
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 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
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
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
