On His Success
“When I was growing up, I always knew I'd be in the top of my class in math, and that gave me a lot of self-confidence.” Sergey Brin
“I feel there's an existential angst among young people. I didn't have that. They see enormous mountains, where I only saw one little hill to climb.” Sergey Brin
