When I started Virgin from a basement flat in West London, I did not set out to build a business empire. I set out to create something I enjoyed that would pay the bills.

You can create a business, choose a name, but unless people know about it you're not going to sell any products.

We will be producing supersonic planes which will go far, far faster than Concordes. New York to Tokyo could be less than an hour. You could be traveling at 19,000 miles an hour orbitally.

Some 80% of your life is spent working. You want to have fun at home; why shouldn't you have fun at work?

Richard Branson 673 quotes

I am constantly pushing myself and my own expectations and have always found that I've always come out better for it. Fear is human nature, but turning fear into opportunity is what will make a difference. I would much rather look back at my life saying "I can't believe I did that," than, "What if I had done that?"

If you're hurt, lick your wounds and get up again. If you've given it your absolute best, it's time to move forward.

Richard Branson 673 quotes

We should focus on what people get done, not on how many hours or days worked. Just as we don't have a nine-to-five policy, we don't need a vacation policy.

What's the quickest way to become a millionaire? Borrow fivers off everyone you meet.

Learning and leadership go together. Too much credit goes to me for what we have achieved at Virgin but the successes happen from working and learning with some of the world's most inspiring and inspired people.

Most "necessary evils" are far more evil than necessary.

Richard Branson 673 quotes

A company is people … employees want to know… am I being listened to or am I a cog in the wheel? People really need to feel wanted.
