The rise of Google, the rise of Facebook, the

rise of Apple, I think are proof that there is a

place for computer science as something that

solves problems that people face every day.

Eric Schmidt


The Internet is the first thing that humanity has

built that humanity doesn't understand, the

largest experiment in anarchy that we have

ever had.

Eric Schmidt


The average American doesn't realize how

much of the laws are written by lobbyists.

Eric Schmidt


The characteristic of great innovators and

great companies is they see a space that

others do not. They don't just listen to what

people tell them; they actually invent

something new, something that you didn't

know you needed, but the moment you see it,

you say, 'I must have it.'

Eric Schmidt


A lot of the Google inventions came from

engineers just screwing around with ideas.

And then management would see them, and

we'd say, 'Boy, that's interesting. Let's add

some more engineers.'

And the more broadband we can get globally,

the better. It's better for the world; it's better for

our advertisers; it's better for Google.

Eric Schmidt


Google is more than a business. Google is a

belief system. And we believe passionately in

the open Internet model.

Eric Schmidt


I've never met a person who does not want a

safer world, better medical care and

education for their children, and peace with

their neighbours. I just don't meet those

people. What I meet, over and over again, as I

travel around, is that the essential human

condition is optimistic - in every one of these

places.

Eric Schmidt


You have to fight for your privacy or you lose

it.

Eric Schmidt


Your car should drive itself. It's amazing to me

that we let humans drive cars... It's a bug that

cars were invented before computers.

There is a science to managing high tech

businesses, and it needs to be respected. One

leadership is temporary. It's constantly

recycling. So the asset has limited lifetime.

Eric Schmidt


Since I have access to every, every crisis in

the world because it's always blaring at me on

cable television, that doesn't mean I have to

worry about every one of them. This is also

known as knowing where the off button is.

Eric Schmidt


The funny thing about advertising is that it's not

a zero-sum game... Historically, in the digital

ad world, pie has gotten larger and it's

possible for everyone to win, and it's perfectly

possible that will continue to be true for quite

some time.

Eric Schmidt


Remember, when you go to YouTube, you do

a search. When you go to Google, you do a

search. As we get the search integrated

between YouTube and Google, which we're

working on, it will drive a lot of traffic into both

places. So the trick, overall, is generating more

searches, more uses of Google.

Eric Schmidt


I had a rule that I had to go to bed before the

sun came up. So I used to look up the sunrise

times because I thought it would be bad

karma to be going to bed as dawn was

arriving.

Eric Schmidt


If you have something that you don't want

anyone to know, maybe you shouldn't be

doing it in the first place.

Eric Schmidt


The coach doesn't have to play the sport as

well as you do. They have to watch you and

get you to be your best.

Eric Schmidt


I still believe that sitting down and reading a

book is the best way to really learn something.
