Larry Brilliant Quotes

• In 1980 we declared the globe free of smallpox. It was the largest campaign in United Nations history until the Iraq war.

• If you don't put the spiritual and religious dimension into our political conversation, you won't be asking the really big and important question. If you don't bring in values and religion, you'll be asking superficial questions. What is life all about? What is our relationship to God? These are the important questions. What is our obligation to one another and community? If we don't ask those questions, the residual questions that we're asking aren't as interesting.

• Life didn't just happen to them. They experienced life at a deeper level than I had ever experienced it.

• Google es un lugar extraño. Cuando conocí a Eric Schmidt, me dijo: "Si eres amable con todo el mundo, tomarás buenas decisiones porque la gente te dará buena información, y si eres sincero con todo el mundo, ellos serán sinceros contigo". Eso es lo diferente de Google. Meten la pata y cometen errores, pero lo de "no seas malo" lo dicen de verdad.

• If there's a big problem and you've got the right people with you, usually the answer emerges and you do what's the obvious thing to do. I don't think of myself as some great manager or great leader. I've been very lucky to be in the positions that I've been in. I meet a lot of people and I've grown a lot of companies, and I meet a lot of CEOs at big enterprises. I'm always so surprised at how much they seem to know. It doesn't always seem to be correlated to how well they actually do.

• El personaje que define Steve Jobs no es su genio, ni su talento, ni su éxito. Es su amor. Es por eso que las multitudes iban a verlo. Podías sentirlo. Suena ridículo hablar de amor cuando estás haciendo un aparato. Pero Steve amaba su trabajo, amaba los productos que producía, y era palpable. Comunicaba ese amor a través de trozos de acero y plástico.
