I remember turning in my first assignment in elementary school using the computer and the teachers were kind of confused that I had printed it.

Most of us carry at least one device, all the time, every day. In fact many of us would feel naked without our smartphone. It's hardly surprising mobile search queries - and mobile commerce - are growing dramatically across the world.

If you look at the people who have high impact, they have pretty general knowledge. They don't have a really narrowly focused education.

Our goal is long-term growth in revenue and absolute profit - so we invest aggressively in future innovation while tightly managing our short-term costs.

If we were motivated by money, we would have sold the company a long time ago and ended up on a beach.

You never lose a dream, it just incubates as a hobby.

Lots of companies don’t succeed over time. What do they fundamentally do wrong? They usually miss the future. I try to focus on that: What is the future really going to be? And how do we create it? And how do we power our organization to really focus on that and really drive it at a high rate? When I was working on Android, I felt guilty. It wasn’t what we were working on, it was a start-up, and I felt guilty. That was stupid! It was the future.
