I've always liked simplicity.

I definitely think what drives technology companies is the people; because in a technology company it's always about what are you going to do next.

I always did something I was a little not ready to do. I think that's how you grow. When there's that moment of 'Wow, I'm not really sure I can do this,' and you push through those moments, that's when you have a breakthrough.

I think that there is a generational change, where new generations that have grown up always having access to the internet have a somewhat different view in terms of personal information and what needs to be kept private.

Before Google, I spent the summer building a program that would look at what websites you would go to and what websites other people would go to - and built a collaborative filtering program that helped you find related sites to look at.

I think Google should be like a Swiss Army knife: clean, simple, the tool you want to take everywhere.
