Larry Page

We want to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.

Always deliver more than expected.

You don't need to have a 100-person company to develop these things.

If you're changing the world, you're working on important things. You're excited to get up in the morning.

The ultimate search engine would understand exactly what you mean and give you back exactly what you want.

My job is to make sure that everybody in the company has great opportunities, and that they feel they're having a meaningful impact and are contributing to the good of society.

We don't have as many managers as other companies. We don't have as many layers.

We have a mantra: don't be evil, which is to say, we want to do things that we think are a net positive for the world.

If you're not doing some things that are crazy, then you're doing the wrong things.

Lots of companies don't succeed over time. What do they fundamentally do wrong? They usually miss the future.

We want to build things that are so good that people will use them every day.

The only way you are going to have success is to have lots of failures first.

It's very hard to fail completely if you are doing something that is truly innovative.

We don't have a lot of rules. We try to get people to think for themselves.

We're still in the Dark Ages of search. We're still in the early days of the Internet.

If you have a co-founder, you're more likely to succeed.

It is important to have a good relationship with your co-founder.

We want to empower people to do great things.

The biggest thing is to have a vision. It's important to have a clear vision of what you want to achieve.

We're not just a search company. We're a technology company.
