More quotes by Bill Gates
Microsoft does not dominate the software industry by any stretch of the imagination. We have lots of very able competitors who keep us constantly vigilant, and sometimes they beat us to the punch. Microsoft's success to date is based solely on the fact that people like Microsoft software.
Bill Gates
If we can find approaches that meet the needs of the poor in ways that generate profits for business and votes for politicians, we will have found a sustainable way to reduce inequity in the world. This task is open-ended. It can never be finished. But a conscious effort to answer this challenge will change the world.
Bill Gates

Bill Gates
There is competition, .. Can any Microsoft endure future competition without innovation? The answer is no. We've got to keep changing.

Bill Gates

Bill Gates
In programming when you're making a change you have to know all the affected places, and you have to be able to model in your head what the performance impact will be.
Bill Gates
I would counsel people to go to college, because it's one of the best times in your life in terms of who you meet and develop a broad set of intellectual skills.
Bill Gates
The PC has improved the world in just about every area you can think of. Amazing developments in communications, collaboration and efficiencies. New kinds of entertainment and social media. Access to information and the ability to give a voice people who would never have been heard.
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
Research shows that there is only half as much variation in student achievement between schools as there is among classrooms in the same school. If you want your child to get the best education possible, it is actually more important to get him assigned to a great teacher than to a great school.
Bill Gates
I believe technology will continue to become more affordable and more people will have the chance to use it. This will help more people get medical care and a good education.
Bill Gates
If you can't make it good, at least make it look good.
