Phoenix, every morning, before sunrise, we would bounce the tennis ball until Bosco was worn out, at which point I would get him a bowl of ice chips and water and he would eat/drink the whole thing.<br/><br/>Bosco was a good boy, most of the time. Of his Excursions into Badness I will remain silent, for Bosco slept in my bed and for most of his life hadn&#39;t been properly managed. But he obeyed me and enjoyed it. <br/><br/>For Balls were his desire, whole and entire.

He argued for funding public institutions (like libraries, universities, and concert halls) that would provide what he called &#34;ladders of opportunity&#34; for people to improve themselves.<br/><br/>He was strongly against simply passing down massive fortunes to heirs, believing it was wasteful and often destroyed the character of the children.<br/><br/>Carnegie built public libraries. Rockefeller built University of Chicago and what is now Rockefeller University. He eliminated hookworm via the Rockefeller Foundation. Stanford built Stanford University. Vanderbilt built a university. J.P. Morgan founded the Metropolitan Museum of Art. <br/><br/>They had the money but they craved the respect philanthropy gave them.

The great weakness of untutored philanthropy is this: it only solves a single problem, often at the expense of others.<br/><br/>But Gates, for all his bumptious mistakes, is trying his best to understand the Larger Problems.
