More quotes by Bill Gates
Me and my dad are the biggest promoters of an estate tax in the US. It's not a popular position.
Bill Gates
When I was in my 40s, Microsoft was my primary activity.
Bill Gates
The outside perception and inside perception of Microsoft are so different. The view of Microsoft inside Microsoft is always kind of an underdog thing.
Bill Gates
Really advanced civilization is based on advances in energy.
Bill Gates
If you want to improve the situation of the poorest two billion on the planet, having the price of energy go down substantially would be the best thing you could do for them.
Bill Gates
People always fear change. People feared electricity when it was invented, didn't they?
Bill Gates
The phenomenal generosity of the United States in its aid budget towards health issues is the best in the world. You can look at that broadly, you can look at it in terms of HIV, the PEPFAR money which came together in a Republican administration with bipartisan support.
Bill Gates
I've been studying how quickly we can get energy out to the poor countries - a lot of which are in Africa - and how little progress we've made there. There's no more electricity today in sub-Saharan Africa per person than there was 20 years ago.
Bill Gates
How we deal with the AIDS epidemic should be one of the greatest ways that the world gets measured. The report card for this era.
Bill Gates
We weren't trying to just go public and get rich. There was no near-term thing. It always was this many-decades thing where there were no shortcuts and we'd sort of put one foot in front of the other.
Bill Gates
Business isn't that complicated. I wouldn't want to put it on my business card.
Bill Gates
Who in their right mind would ever need more than 640k of ram!?
Bill Gates
There are several hundred people who stayed in the Ebola-affected countries and continued to do the work, put themselves at great risk because medical workers are the most likely to be infected because they're helping out when the person's health is deteriorating, including quite a bit of bleeding as they're getting very, very sick.
Bill Gates
The only thing I understand deeply, because in my teens I was thinking about it, and every year of my life, is software. So I'll never be hands-on on anything except software.
Bill Gates
The machines need to get faster. They need to get cheaper.
Bill Gates
America's high schools are obsolete. By obsolete, I don't just mean that they're broken, flawed, or underfunded, though a case could be made for every one of those points. By obsolete, I mean our high schools-even when they're working as designed-cannot teach all our students what they need to know today.
Bill Gates
In programming when you're making a change you have to know all the affected places, and you have to be able to model in your head what the performance impact will be.
Bill Gates
Like any well designed software product, Windows is designed, developed and tested as an integrated whole.
Bill Gates
Philanthropy is fun and fulfilling.
Bill Gates
The tablet is not mainstream. Reading off the screen is not mainstream.
