Zitate und Sprüche von 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.

Google was founded to get information to everybody. A by-product of that strategy is that we invented an advertising business which has provided great economics that allows us to build the servers, hire the employees, create value.

You have to fight for your privacy or you lose it.

I call Washington "the city of the perishable".

Let me give you a little bit of free advice. DC is all about realtionships.

Alex: "You can't do that. You can't make promises that you won't be able to keep!"
Tom: "We're in Washington, they're the only promises we're allowed to make."

You want a friend in Washington? Get a dog!

Give me your love and not your like!

The internet has been a boon and a curse for teenagers.

Willow: "Have you Googled her?"
Xander: "Willow! She's seventeen!"
Willow: "It's a search engine."

Microsoft is in a lot of the same businesses that Google is in.

Brainy: "Whoa, just what is this magic searching device?"
Patrick: "Right now, I'm using Google."

Try Google, Bing or Yahoo
Though it is not advised
To expect good finds on page two

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

We're working on becoming more efficient with our energy usage, but those algorithms use as much energy as the whole country of Denmark.

If one does not often make mistakes, then one has not challenged oneself enough.

I think we can all agree Elon isn't serious and it's time to move on. I offered a real date. Dana White offered to make this a legit competition for charity. Elon won't confirm a date, then says he needs surgery, and now asks to do a practice round in my backyard instead. If Elon ever gets serious about a real date and official event, he knows how to reach me. Otherwise, time to move on. I'm going to focus on competing with people who take the sport seriously.

You want to be the pebble in the pond that creates the ripple for change.
