My vision when we started Google 15 years ago was that eventually you wouldn't have to have a search query at all. You'd just have information come to you as you needed it. And Google Glass is now, 15 years later, sort of the first form factor that I think can deliver that vision.
Sergey Brin
As we go forward, I hope we're going to continue to use technology to make really big differences in how people live and work.

Sergey Brin
Solving big problems is easier than solving little problems.
Sergey Brin
Once you go from 10 people to 100, you already don’t know who everyone is. So at that stage you might as well keep growing, to get the advantages of scale.
Sergey Brin
When I was growing up, I always knew I'd be in the top of my class in math, and that gave me a lot of self-confidence.
Sergey Brin
Today, if you want to access a typical out-of-print book, you have only one choice - fly to one of a handful of leading libraries in the country and hope to find it in the stacks.
Sergey Brin
We wouldn't survive if people didn't trust us.
Sergey Brin
The name was supposed to be 'Googol,' which is the mathematical term for a 1 followed by 100 zeroes. It was before the Google spellchecker existed.
Sergey Brin
Generally, health is just so heavily regulated. It's just a painful business to be in. It's just not necessarily how I want to spend my time.
Sergey Brin
Any conversation I have about innovation starts with the ultimate goal.
