The Web is a vast collection of completely uncontrolled heterogeneous documents.

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.

We have a mantra: don't be evil, which is to do the best things we know how for our users, for our customers, for everyone. So I think if we were known for that, it would be a wonderful thing.

You may think using Google's great, but I still think it's terrible.

The ultimate search engine would basically understand everything in the world, and it would always give you the right thing. And we're a long, long ways from that.

If we are not trusted, we have no business.

We don't have as many managers as we should, but we would rather have too few than too many.
