Bill Gates' words of wisdom

June 26, 2008

"Just in terms of allocation of time resources, religion is not very efficient. There's a lot more I could be doing on a Sunday morning."

  • "We've done some good work, but all of these products become obsolete so fast... It will be some finite number of years, and I don't know the number - before our doom comes."

  • "Personal computing today is a rich ecosystem encompassing massive PC-based data centers, notebook and Tablet PCs, handheld devices, and smart cell phones. It has expanded from the desktop and the data center to wherever people need it - at their desks, in a meeting, on the road or even in the air."

  • "If you show people the problems and you show people the solutions they will be moved to act."

  • "If you get health, then you have opportunity for literacy. Health first, then literacy. Once you have literacy, then you have a chance to bring in the new tools of communication. Let people reach out and have access to the latest advances."
