More quotes by Bill Gates
I believe OS/2 is destined to be the most important operating system, and possibly program, of all time.
Bill Gates
Even when things are stable, that's not easy [to work in Africa] because there are not roads, and the weather is tough, the education system hasn't been there. But this is how you get great countries, is step by step.
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
I love nuclear. It does this radiation thing that's tricky. But they're good solutions. You know, it was interesting recently, in Connecticut this natural gas plant blew up 11 guys. It just blew them up.
Bill Gates
Think of business as a good game. Lots of competition and a minimum of rules. You keep score with money.
Bill Gates
I'm not an educator ... I'm a learner.
Bill Gates
Look At The Clock When You Are Sitting idle. But Never Look At The Clock When You Are Working.
Bill Gates
In the US in the 1900's 60 % of people were employed on the farms. Today it's less than 1%. If you told people back then that this would happen they wouldn't have believed it. If you told them we would have therapy, massages and spas that played important parts in our lives they would've have believed us.
Bill Gates
Teaching's hard! You need different skills: positive reinforcement, keeping students from getting bored, commanding their attention in a certain way.
Bill Gates
Scientists and companies weren't creating things like new vaccines. Now that we have this fund that's there to buy at the lowest price, but buy for those people these medicines, we see scientists everywhere coming up with those new tools.
Bill Gates
When you are failing, you are forced to be creative, to dig deep and think, night and day.
Bill Gates
You might say, well, aren't people saying that about wind and solar today? Not really. Only in the super-narrow sense that the capital costs per output, when the wind is blowing, is slightly lower.
Bill Gates
If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Bill Gates
Life is not fair get used to used to it
Bill Gates
We need to cooperate globally on epidemic preparedness and prevention in the same way we are cooperating globally to stop people from getting nuclear weapons.
Bill Gates
There are ecosystems like coral reefs [at risk] through ocean acidification. Those are valuable things that we should protect.
Bill Gates
Playing Bridge is a pretty old fashioned thing in a way that I really like... I do the dishes every night - other people volunteer but I like the way I do it.
Bill Gates
When I say an energy miracle, I mean that there will be some form of energy whose 24 hour cost really is competitive with hydrocarbons given, say, 20 years of learning curve. You invent it, then you look at how much its costs go down over the next 20 years, that it really beats hydrocarbons.
Bill Gates
In 1990, one in 10 children died before the age of five. That's now down to one in 20, and vaccines were the single biggest factor in that. Had it stayed at 10 percent, 122 million more children would have died.
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.
