Since I have access to every, every crisis in the world because it's always blaring at me on cable television, that doesn't mean I have to worry about every one of them. This is also known as knowing where the 'off' button is.

The more broadband we can get globally, the better. It's better for the world; it's better for our advertisers; it's better for Google.

Even though Google may do very well, there will always be an alternative to what Google is doing, and people will always have the free choice... because there's no way for us to prevent them from exercising that choice. That is one of the key aspects of why the Internet has been so successful. No technologies can dominate.

I still believe that sitting down and reading a book is the best way to really learn something.

It's because of this fundamental shift towards user-generated information that people will listen more to other people than to traditional resources.

People who bet against the Internet, who think that somehow this change is just a generational shift, miss that it is a fundamental reorganizing of the power of the end user. The Internet brings tremendous tools to the end user, and that end user is going to use them.

I don't believe society understands what happens when everything is available, knowable and recorded by everyone all the time.
