More quotes by Bill Gates
Billionaires should never be responsible for solving problems, because they're not the government.
Bill Gates
I considered law and math. My Dad was a lawyer. I think though I would have ended up in physics if I didn't end up in computer science.
Bill Gates
In almost every area of human endeavor, the practice improves over time. That hasn't been the case for teaching.
Bill Gates
Treatment without prevention is simply unsustainable.
Bill Gates
My wife thinks she's better than me at puzzles. I haven't given in on that one yet.
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
It is hard to smash a computer when you're laughing.
Bill Gates

Bill Gates
Depending on how quickly you get ocean rise, you have people who live in river deltas [at risk].
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
I have been struck again and again by how important measurement is to improving the human condition.
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
The fight against AIDS in China is already well underway. The Chinese government and other funders are providing major support, and they'll continue to bear primary responsibility for delivering prevention and treatment.
Bill Gates
There is no doubt PC prices will be coming down.
Bill Gates
I really do think cancer will largely be a solved problem. I think most of the infectious diseases like malaria - our foundation is very involved - once we're finishing polio eradication, then starting up this malaria eradication, and getting that done as fast as we can.
Bill Gates
Nobody believes in completely unadulterated capitalism.
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
[Smart] is an elusive concept. There's a certain sharpness, an ability to absorb new facts. To ask an insightful question. To relate to domains that may not seem connected at first. A certain creativity that allows people to be effective.
