Too Bad It Took Him So Long To Figure This Out
"So partly the reason the U.S. has the leadership we have today [ Oct. 18, 2000 ]is that about 20 years ago, we had a high degree of humility. That is, we looked at Japan and sort of said, 'Wow, is their model superior, is there something about our model that could be strong.' And all these great things benefited from that approach.
If during this period we don't retain at least some of that humility and look at what other countries are doing and learn from them, then our relative dominance will shrink faster than it should."
-- Bill Gates, Digital Dividends Conference, Seattle, Oct. 18, 2000.
