More quotes by Bill Gates
Well-spent aid money is saving lives for a few thousand dollars per life saved.
Bill Gates
I don't have any TVs with their over-the-air receivers connected in my house.

I just try to stay away from it because I like to read.

Bill Gates
I think given all the different imperatives - getting energy to Africa, security of energy, climate change, that we should be spending half as much as we spend on health, which will get you all the way up to $15 billion - the health people don't like it when things get compared to their number.
Bill Gates

The term, information at your fingertips, is to remind people what a broad role the personal computer will be playing. It's not a computation device, it's not a word processing or a spreadsheet device. It's a window onto the world of information.
