More quotes by Bill Gates
The only thing I understand deeply, because in my teens I was thinking about it, and every year of my life, is software. So I'll never be hands-on on anything except software.
Bill Gates
Software was the key element that would determine how useable and how broadly applicable the machine was.
Bill Gates
Should there be cameras everywhere in outdoor streets? My personal view is having cameras in inner cities is a very good thing. In the case of London, petty crime has gone down. They catch terrorists because of it. And if something really bad happens, most of the time you can figure out who did it.
Bill Gates
We'll have infinite bandwidth in a decade's time.
Bill Gates
Paper is no longer a big part of my day. I get 90% of my news online, and when I go to a meeting and want to jot things down, I bring my Tablet PC. It's fully synchronized with my office machine so I have all the files I need.
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 believe that if you show people the problems and you show them the solutions they will be moved to act.
Bill Gates
People often overestimate what will happen in the next two years and underestimate what will happen in ten.
Bill Gates
Digital technology has several features that can make it much easier for teachers to pay special attention to all their students.
Bill Gates
Although I don't have a prescription for what others should do, I know I have been very fortunate and feel a responsibility to give back to society in a very significant way.
Bill Gates
So not only are we saving lives now, we're creating the incentive for the breakthroughs that over the next generation will mean we can take AIDS, malaria and TB and bring those numbers dramatically down.
Bill Gates
You know, I'm a big believer in touch and digital reading, but I still think that some mixture of voice, the pen and a real keyboard - in other words a netbook - will be the mainstream on that.
Bill Gates
A bad strategy will fail no matter how good your information is. And lame execution will stymie a good strategy. If you do enough things poorly, you'll go out of business.
Bill Gates
Investing in innovation, which was my broad theme talking to [Warren Buffett ], that included health vaccines, it included energy and education.
Bill Gates
I think any statement about stock prices is always suspect unless it's made by Warren Buffett.
Bill Gates
Only through focus can you do world-class things, no matter how capable you are.
Bill Gates
Windows 8 is key to the future, the Surface computer.
Bill Gates
Eradications are special. Zero is a magic number. You either do what it takes to get to zero and you're glad you did it or you get close, give up and it goes back to where it was before, in which case you wasted all that credibility, activity, money that could have been applied to other things.
Bill Gates
Kenya’s M-Pesa proves that when people are empowered, they will use digital tech to innovate on their own behalf.
Bill Gates
The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Bill Gates
