Excellence matters, and technology advances so fast that the potential for improvement is tremendous. So, since becoming CEO again, I've pushed hard to increase our velocity, improve our execution, and focus on the big bets that will make a difference in the world.

The amazing thing is that we're part of people's daily lives, like brushing their teeth. It's just something they do throughout the day while working, buying things, deciding what to do after work and much more. Google has been accepted as part of people's lives.

As a precaution, we’re making machines extremely heavy with very tiny legs.

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.

You treat people with respect, they tend to return the favor to the company.

For me, privacy and security are really important. We think about it in terms of both: You can't have privacy without security.

Technology should do the hard work so people can do the things that make them the happiest in life.
