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

As people's access to the internet grows we're seeing the sharing economy boom - I think our obsession with ownership is at a tipping point and the sharing economy is part of the antidote for that.

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.

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

Entrepreneurial business favours the open mind. It favours people whose optimism drives them to prepare for many possible futures, pretty much purely for the joy of doing so.

Richard Branson 673 quotes

Government and business must ...

Government and business must come together on the interlinked issues of conservation, economic development and renewable energy. There are literally thousands of businesses, many in the tourism industry, that depend on an intact marine environment for their long-term survival.

Look, if you can indulge in your passion, life will be far more interesting than if you're just working. You'll work harder at it, and you'll know more about it. But first you must go out and educate yourself on whatever it is that you've decided to do - know more about kite-surfing than anyone else. That's where the work comes in. But if you're doing things you're passionate about, that will come naturally.

I read a fair amount [of science fiction], and you know it was certainly inspirational. I have to pinch myself to think that we might be able to make some of [what I've read in science fiction books] come true.

Half the art of ballooning is to make your crashes so gentle that you can fool yourself into calling them landings.

Richard Branson 673 quotes

Every risk is worth taking as long as it's for a good cause, and contributes to a good life.

Richard Branson 673 quotes

Above all, you want to create something you're proud of.

I've obviously been born fortunate. I love people. I enjoy every single minute of my life.

Smoking marijuana, as long as you leave the nicotine out of it, is certainly no more damaging than having a drink, and I suspect better for you than having a drink.
