More quotes by Bill Gates
Everyone needs a coach. It doesn't matter whether you're a basketball player, a tennis player, a gymnast or a bridge player.
Bill Gates
A top-quartile teacher will increase the performance of their class - based on test scores - by over 10 percent in a single year. ... That means that if the entire U.S., for two years, had top-quartile teachers, the entire difference between us and Asia would go away.
Bill Gates
You don't have to own a TV network to go out and do a cool show.
Bill Gates
I have always loved the competitive forces in this business. You know I certainly have meetings where I spur people on by saying, Hey, we can do better than this. How come we are not out ahead on that? Thats what keeps my job one of the most interesting in the world.
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
You have to be willing to see that sometimes the governments of these poor countries don't come through. You have to think about that as a constraint. How do you help them be better? How do you come up with things that actually work, even in those tough situations.
Bill Gates
Be nice to nerds, they'll probably be your boss one day.
Bill Gates

Bill Gates
Like my friend Warren Buffett, I feel particularly lucky to do something every day that I love to do. He calls it tap dancing to work.
Bill Gates
Microsoft has had its success by doing low-cost products and constantly improving those products and we've really redefined the IT industry to be something that's about a tool for individuals.
Bill Gates
People who feared IBM were wrong, ... Technology is ever-changing.
Bill Gates
We're responsible for the creation of the PC industry. The whole idea of compatible machines and lots of software - that's something we brought to computing. And so it's a responsibility for us to make sure that things like security don't get in the way of that dream.
Bill Gates
Security is, I would say, our top priority because for all the exciting things you will be able to do with computers - organizing your lives, staying in touch with people, being creative - if we don't solve these security problems, then people will hold back.
Bill Gates
Success is a lousy teacher.
Bill Gates
We should all grow our own food and do our own waste processing, we really should.
Bill Gates
Apple has always leveraged technologies that the PC industry has driven to critical mass - the bus structures, the graphics cards, the peripherals, the connection networks, things like that - so they're kind of in the PC ecosystem and kind of not.
Bill Gates
I don't think culture is something you can describe.
Bill Gates
I do think this next century, hopefully, will be about a more global view. Where you don't just think, 'Yes, my country is doing well,' but you think about the world at large.
Bill Gates
Good programmers stay open minded to that even though there is no obvious way to improve what they've done they... they keep looking and they listen to what other people have to say.
Bill Gates
Whenever you have multiple devices including multiple PCs that you want to share information with, it's always been a bit complicated.
