The kind of environment that we developed Google in, the reason that we were able to develop a search engine, is the web was so open. Once you get too many rules, that will stifle innovation.

We came up with the notion that not all web pages are created equal. People are – but not web pages.

Technology is an inherent democratizer. Because of the evolution of hardware and software, you’re able to scale up almost anything. It means that in our lifetime everyone may have tools of equal power.

When I was growing up, I always knew I'd be in the top of my class in math, and that gave me a lot of self-confidence.

In the future, search engines should be as useful as HAL in the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey-but hopefully they won't kill people.

Solving big problems is easier than solving little problems.

Too many rules will stifle innovation.
