Google is all about information. So the notion of using and presenting information in the right point at the right time to users is what, in essence, describes Google.

Android was intended to be very customizable. And we welcome innovations.

Android is one of the most open systems I've ever seen. What makes Android great is it's literally designed from the ground up to be customised in a very powerful way.

The right moral compass is trying hard to think about what customers want.

We run Android in a very open way and work closely with all partners. We work with Samsung, and I spend a lot of time with them. But we've always supported other partners.

Android was built to be very, very secure.

The core of what Google is about is bringing information to people.

Android phones in China are more 'Android open source' rather than Android in the way we are all used to here. So a lot of phones don't have Google Play, etc.

Obviously, you will always see more malware targeting Android because Android is used more than any smartphone platform by a pretty substantial difference.

We ship a new version of Google Play Services every six weeks. Typically, 90 percent of users are on the new version of that.

You're going to have 100s of millions of users on Chrome, spanning mobile, tablets, and desktops. That is one unfragmented base. That uniformity is probably better than most of the issues across browsers.

If we are building something that users need, and there is a lot of value we are driving, I think how search manifests in iOS will work out just fine.

Google search was important - one of the most important applications ever on the Web. People accessed everything through a browser, and for us it was important for making sure we had an option there.

Open platforms historically undergo a lot of scrutiny, but there are a lot of advantages to having an open source platform from a security standpoint.

Google teams have lots of autonomy, including from people like me.

We need to bring Android and Chrome to every screen that matters for users, which is why we focused on phone, wearables, car, television, laptops, and even your workplace.

Technology can be our best friend, and technology can also be the biggest party pooper of our lives. It interrupts our own story, interrupts our ability to have a thought or a daydream, to imagine something wonderful, because we're too busy bridging the walk from the cafeteria back to the office on the cell phone.

I want to be able to speak with errors in my wording, errors in my grammar. When you type things into Google search, it corrects your words. With speech, I want it to be general enough, smart enough, to know 'No, he couldn't have meant these words that I think he said. He must have really meant something similar.'

Wherever smart people work, doors are unlocked.

Although I receive a small salary from Apple, I do virtually no real work at the company.

Steve Jobs didn't really set the direction of my Apple I and Apple II designs but he did the more important part of turning them into a product that would change the world. I don't deny that.

When the Internet first came, I thought it was just the beacon of freedom. People could communicate with anyone, anywhere, and nobody could stop it.

Hard disks have disappointed me more than most technologies.

If you try to make such projects, unseen by others, as perfect as any human could, you'll develop skills that other professionals don't have.
