More quotes by Bill Gates
For Africa to move forward, you've really got to get rid of malaria.
Bill Gates
We’re no longer in the days where every program is super well crafted. But at the heart of the programs that make it to the top, you’ll find that the key internal code was done by a few people who really knew what they were doing.
Bill Gates
There is a difference between what technology enables and what historical business practices enable.
Bill Gates
You can be a business thinker.
Bill Gates
When Ford sells a car, a dealer isn't allowed to take out the engine and put a different one in. When a newsstand sells the Washington Post, no one can go to the newsstand and pay them to rip out the classified section and put their own classified section in - if they could, they would do so.
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
There certainly is a case to be made that taxes should be more progressive.
Bill Gates
I have to admit that business-type thoughts do sneak into my head: I hope our customers pay us, I hope this stuff is decent, I hope we get it done on time. The little additions and subtractions that one has to do. Take sales, take costs and try to get that big positive number at the bottom.
Bill Gates
Life is not a continuous process, there's some sort of finite number of achievements that defines your life.
Bill Gates
There is no doubt PC prices will be coming down.
Bill Gates
For all these infectious diseases, the goal is to eventually get rid of them. And to do that we need to invent new tools, but nobody was doing that because there was no money to buy on behalf of the poorest, even the existing tools.
Bill Gates
I can understand wanting to have a million dollars but once you get beyond that, I have to tell you, it's the same hamburger.
Bill Gates
If the 1980s were about quality and the 1990s were about reengineering, then the 2000s will be about velocity.
Bill Gates
Skype actually does get a fair bit of revenue.
Bill Gates
I believe in innovation and that the way you get innovation is you fund research and you learn the basic facts.
Bill Gates
Automation applied to an inefficient operation will magnify the inefficiency.
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!
Bill Gates
Does the e-mail say it's about 'enlargement' - that might be spam.
Bill Gates
Most innovations, unfortunately, actually increase the net costs of the healthcare system. There's a few, particularly having to do with chronic diseases, that are an exception. If you could cure Alzheimer's, if you could avoid diabetes - those are gigantic in terms of saving money. But the incentive regime doesn't favor them.
Bill Gates
I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time. But many others were also in the same place. The difference was that I took action.
