More quotes by Bill Gates
Discrimination has a lot of layers that make it tough for minorities to get a leg up.
Bill Gates
Automation applied to an inefficient operation will magnify the inefficiency.
Bill Gates
Measles will always show you if someone isn't doing a good job on vaccinations. Kids will start dying of measles.
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
The most important 'speed' issue is often not technical but cultural. It's convincing everyone that the company's survival depends on everyone moving as fast as possible.
Bill Gates
If GM had kept up with technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving $25 cars that got 1,000 MPG.
Bill Gates
We are seeing smarter philanthropy, more philanthropy, and that's true world wide. So it's kind of a movement that has a lot of accomplishments, even though as a percentage of the economy, it's still only a few per cent.
Bill Gates
I agree with people like Richard Dawkins that mankind felt the need for creation myths. Before we really began to understand disease and the weather and things like that, we sought false explanations for them. Now science has filled in some of the realm – not all – that religion used to fill.
Bill Gates
Computer science … jobs should be way more interesting than even going to Wall Street or being a lawyer--or, I can argue, than anything but perhaps biology, and there it's just a tie.
Bill Gates
We always overestimate the change that will occur in the next two years and underestimate the change that will occur in the next ten. Don't let yourself be lulled into inaction.
Bill Gates
I'm a great believer that any tool that enhances communication has profound effects in terms of how people can learn from each other, and how they can achieve the kind of freedoms that they're interested in.
Bill Gates
Philanthropy is fun and fulfilling.
Bill Gates
I'd be happy if I could think that the role of the library was sustained and even enhanced in the age of the computer.
Bill Gates
The vision is really about empowering workers giving them all the information about what’s going on so they can do a lot more than they’ve done in the past.
Bill Gates
My success, part of it certainly, is that I have focused in on a few things.
Bill Gates
A company needs to have good business reflexes, to be able to marshal its forces in a crisis or in response to any unplanned event.
Bill Gates
Life is not a continuous process, there's some sort of finite number of achievements that defines your life.
Bill Gates
What destroys more self-confidence than any other educational thing in America is being assigned to some remedial math when you get into some college, and then it's not taught very well and you end up with this sense of, 'Hey, I can't really figure those things out.'
Bill Gates
I don't generally read a lot of fiction.
Bill Gates
For one thing, there's an essential human factor in every business endeavor. It doesn't matter if you have a perfect product, production plan and marketing pitch you'll still need the right people to lead and implement those plans.
