More quotes by Bill Gates
Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.
Bill Gates
While we're all very dependent on technology, it doesn't always work.
Bill Gates
When making choices, or setting policies about the economy, education or medicine, society is best served by electing people who are particularly hardworking, intelligent and interested in long-term thinking.
Bill Gates
If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Bill Gates
Africa is on the rise.
Bill Gates

The market does not drive the scientists, the communicators, the thinkers, the government to do the right things.
Bill Gates
There were a lot of missteps in the early days, but because we got in early we got to make more mistakes than other people.
Bill Gates

Bill Gates
We need to start thinking about the future of food if we are going to feed 9 billion people in a way that does not destroy our environment.
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
I believe that if you show people the problems and you show them the solutions they will be moved to act.
Bill Gates
We paired this announcement of the R&D [commitment] with the so-called Breakthrough Energy Coalition, which is 27 [major investors] saying, Hey, we'll put significant money into [energy innovations] when they're ready to spin out probably into startup companies.
Bill Gates
There is a difference between what technology enables and what historical business practices enable.
Bill Gates
When Paul Allen and I started Microsoft over 30 years ago, we had big dreams about software. We had dreams about the impact it could have.
Bill Gates
It's easier for our software to compete with Linux when there's piracy than when there's not.
Bill Gates
One thing I've always loved about the culture at Microsoft is there is nobody who is tougher on us, in terms of what we need to learn and do better, than the people in the company itself. You can walk down these halls, and they'll tell you, 'We need to do usability better, push this or that frontier.'
Bill Gates
[We in Microsoft] are not the only software company but we are a great software company doing some unique work.
Bill Gates
Two out of every five people on Earth today owe their lives to the higher crop outputs that fertilizer has made possible.
Bill Gates
I am not a huge gamer. My son knows a LOT more than I do about what is cool on Xbox. I played Halo but the sports games that the whole family can use are the things I use the most. I threw the javelin very very far!
