Every story I read about Google is about us vs some other company, or something else, and I really don't find that interesting. We should be building great things that don't exist. Being negative is not how we make progress.

If your business is static, you're likely to have issues.

You’re going to have some very amazing capabilities in the economy. When we have computers that can do more and more jobs, it’s going to change how we think about work. There’s no way around that. You can’t wish it away.

We try to, when you come to Google, fulfill that need that you have as quickly as possible.

You need to get one thing done well, or else you don't have permission to do anything else.

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.

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.
