Amazon.com Review
Love him or hate him, no matter how you feel about Bill Gates, you've got to respect him. As the richest man in the world and leader of the most successful company of our day, Gates has achieved a level of success that even the Almighty might be jealous of. In Bill Gates Speaks, Janet Lowe captures much of the Gates legend by weaving together stories and quotes attributed to Gates in speeches, newspapers, and interviews in a short and easy-to-read volume. The book covers everything from Gates's time at Harvard to the construction of his "home" on the shores of Lake Washington near Seattle. The result is a well-rounded look at the man who has helped to shape our present more than any other individual alive today. --Harry C. Edwards

Product Description
The world listens when Bill Gates speaks

"I'm not competent to judge his technical ability, but I regard his business savvy as extraordinary. If Bill had started a hot dog stand, he would have become the hot dog king of the world."-Warren Buffett

"It is still possible to be a Vanderbilt, an Astor, a Rockefeller. You can still do that, you can be Bill Gates."-David Geffen

"Love him or hate him, but you can't ignore him."-Fortune

Here is just a sample of what you'll find inside:

"My parents weren't all that excited about their son announcing he was dropping out of a fine university to start a business in something almost nobody had heard of called `microcomputers.'"

"Our slogan from the very beginning was `a computer on every desk and in every home.'"
