claim: Claims Bill Gates said, "I will always choose a lazy person to do a hard job. Because he will find an easy way to do it."
evidence: But is this quote an accurate reflection of something Gates said? We investigated. [...] The first thing we did was a search for part of the quote on Gates’s personal blog. This came up empty. [...] There is no verifiable evidence Bill Gates ever said he’d choose a "lazy person to do a hard job".
