Larry Page Quotes

The following are some quotes from Larry Page! Larry page is an American billionaire and co-founder of Google company. More Larry Page info!

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

Don’t be evil.

If you can run the company a bit more collaboratively, you get a better result, because you have more bandwidth and checking and balancing going on.

We believe strongly that in the long term, we will be better served—as shareholders and in all other ways—by a company that does good things for the world even if we forgo some short term gains. This is an important aspect of our culture and is broadly shared within the company.

I worry, but I’ve worried all along. I worried as we got bigger and there were new pressures on the company.

The dot-com period was difficult for us. We were dismayed in that climate.

In general we’re trying to use the web’s self-organizing properties to decide which things to present. We don’t want to be in the position of having to decide these things. We take the responsibility seriously. People depend on us.

People do it (searching on web, spamming) because it’s like discovering fire: “We can affect the web!” Well, you are the web, so of course you can affect it.

Advertising is more predictable and probably more effective.

We try to use elements from different companies, but a lot is seat-of-your-pants stuff.

Basically, our goal is to organize the world's information and to make it universally accessible and useful.

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.

Ted Turner is the founder of the CNN news network. More Ted Turner info

The world and life have been mighty good to me. And I want to put something back.

I just love it when people say I can't do it, there's nothing that makes me feel better [than proving them wrong] because all my life, people have said that I wasn't going to make it.

Early to bed, early to rise, work like hell and advertise.

Every few seconds it changes - up an eighth, down an eighth -it's like playing a slot machine. I lose $20 million, I gain $20 million.

Life is a game. Money is how we keep score.

The United States has got some of the dumbest people in the world. I want you to know that we know that.

My son is now an "entrepreneur." That's what you're called when you don't have a job.

You can never quit. Winner never quit, and quitters never win.

You cannot climb the ladder of success dressed in the costume of failure.

War has been good to me from a financial standpoint but I don't want to make money that way. I don't want blood money.

To be happy in this world, first you need a cell phone and then you need an airplane. Then you're truly wireless.

Donald Trump Quotes (3)

As mentioned in my previous Business Quotes posting! Here is my last installments fo Donald Trump quotes! Please enjoy!

Experience taught me a few things. One is to listen to your gut, no matter how good something sounds on paper. The second is that you're generally better off sticking with what you know. And the third is that sometimes your best investments are the ones you don't make.

Money was never a big motivation for me, except as a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game.

The point is that you can't be too greedy.

Well, yes, I've fired a lot of people. Generally I like other people to fire, because it's always a lousy task. But I have fired many people.

All of the women on The Apprentice flirted with me - consciously or unconsciously. That's to be expected.

I mean, there's no arguing. There is no anything. There is no beating around the bush. "You're fired" is a very strong term.

I try to learn from the past, but I plan for the future by focusing exclusively on the present. That's were the fun is.

What separates the winners from the losers is how a person reacts to each new twist of fate.

I like thinking big. If you're going to be thinking anything, you might as well think big.

I'm a bit of a P. T. Barnum. I make stars out of everyone.

Henry Ford Quotes (3)

It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.

Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger, even though sometimes it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward.

Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs.

Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.

The highest use of capital is not to make more money, but to make money do more for the betterment of life.

The man who will use his skill and constructive imagination to see how much he can give for a dollar, instead of how little he can give for a dollar, is bound to succeed.

The only real security that a man can have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience and ability.

There are no big problems, there are just a lot of little problems.

There is joy in work. There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something.

There is no man living that can not do more than he thinks he can.

There is one rule for industrialists and that is: make the best quality of goods possible at the lowest cost possible, paying the highest wages possible.

Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it.

Bill Gates Quotes

Henry Ford Quote (2)

Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.

As we advance in life we learn the limits of our abilities.

Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes shine to the stars. Enthusiasm is the sparkle in your eyes, the swing in your gait. The grip of your hand, the irresistible surge of will and energy to execute your ideas.

Even a mistake may turn out to be the one thing necessary to a worthwhile achievement.

Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.

History is more or less bunk.

I am looking for a lot of men who have an infinite capacity to not know what can't be done.

If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.

If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view and see things from that person's angle as well as from your own.

If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.

It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste.

It is not the employer who pays the wages. Employers only handle the money. It is the customer who pays the wages.

Some people read off of their Palms and Pocket PCs, but the real immersible reading experience takes a full-screen device.
