Well private money can take risks in a way that government money often isn't willing to.
Quote by -Bill Gates
I think the positive competition between states in India is one of the most positive dynamics that the country has.
Quote by -Bill Gates
I think when smallpox was eliminated, the whole world got pretty excited about that because it's just such a dramatic success.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Well I think any author or musician is anxious to have legitimate sales of their products, partly so they're rewarded for their success, partly so they can go on and do new things.
Quote by -Bill Gates
In inner-city, low-income communities of color, there's such a high correlation in terms of educational quality and success.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Antitrust is the way that the government promotes markets when there are market failures. It has nothing to do with the idea of free information
Quote by -Bill Gates
Corruption is one of the most common reasons I hear in views that criticize aid.
Quote by -Bill Gates
The intersection of law, politics, and technology is going to force a lot of good thinking.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Money has always been in politics. And I'm not sure you'd want money to be completely out of politics.
Quote by -Bill Gates
There's no such thing as going to a soapbox and saying, 'The government's corrupt,' and not having the intelligence service see your face. In the digital world, that can be done.
Quote by -Bill Gates
I'm sorry that we have to have a Washington presence. We thrived during our first 16 years without any of this. I never made a political visit to Washington and we had no people here. It wasn't on our radar screen. We were just making great software.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Countries which receive aid do graduate. Within a generation, Korea went from being a big recipient to being a big aid donor. China used to get quite a bit of aid; now it's aid-neutral.

Quote by -Bill Gates
The tool that's most associated with the recent progress against malaria is the long-lasting bed net. Bed nets are a fantastic innovation. But we can do even better. We can invent new ways to control the mosquitoes that carry the malaria parasite.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Harnessing steam power required many innovations, as William Rosen chronicles in the book 'The Most Powerful Idea in the World.'
Quote by -Bill Gates
Innovation is a good thing. The human condition - put aside bioterrorism and a few footnotes - is improving because of innovation.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Innovations that are guided by smallholder farmers, adapted to local circumstances, and sustainable for the economy and environment will be necessary to ensure food security in the future.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Almost every way we make electricity today, except for the emerging renewables and nuclear, puts out CO2. And so, what we're going to have to do at a global scale, is create a new system. And so, we need energy miracles.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Governments will always play a huge part in solving big problems. They set public policy and are uniquely able to provide the resources to make sure solutions reach everyone who needs them. They also fund basic research, which is a crucial component of the innovation that improves life for everyone.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Software innovation, like almost every other kind of innovation, requires the ability to collaborate and share ideas with other people, and to sit down and talk with customers and get their feedback and understand their needs.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Given how few young people actually read the newspaper, it's a good thing they'll be reading a newspaper on a screen.
Quote by -Bill Gates
When Paul Allen and I started Microsoft over 30 years ago, we had big dreams about software. We had dreams about the impact it could have.
Quote by -Bill Gates
I really had a lot of dreams when I was a kid, and I think a great deal of that grew out of the fact that I had a chance to read a lot.
Quote by -Bill Gates
I didn't used to wear a watch. Now I have a SPOT watch, which I wear all the time.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Fortunately for India, it has got a growing economy. If it is doing the right things with taxation and focusing on the right areas for human development, it is going to have no problem, over a period of time, taking care of its own needs.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Bitcoin is mostly about anonymous transactions, and I don't think over time that's a good way to go. I'm a huge believe in digital currency... but doing it on an anonymous basis I think that leads to some abuses, so I'm not involved in Bitcoin.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Over time, yes, countries will need to look at specific GMO products like they look at drugs today, where they don't approve them all. They look hard at the safety and the testing. And they make sure that the benefits far outweigh any of the downsides.
Quote by -Bill Gates
The world at large is less inequitable today than at any time in history. Number of people in abject poverty, as a percentage, is at all-time low.
Quote by -Bill Gates
The typical project design time for a large company like IBM - and they keep track of this - is a little over four years.
Quote by -Bill Gates
In almost every area of human endeavor, the practice improves over time. That hasn't been the case for teaching.
Quote by -Bill Gates
What's amazing is, if young people understood how doing well in school makes the rest of their life so much interesting, they would be more motivated. It's so far away in time that they can't appreciate what it means for their whole life.
Quote by -Bill Gates
The only definition by which America's best days are behind it is on a purely relative basis.
Quote by -Bill Gates
Contrary to popular belief, I don't spend a whole lot of time following soccer. But as I have traveled around the world to better understand global development and health, I've learned that soccer is truly universal. No matter where I go, that's what kids are playing. That's what people are talking about.
