Being good is good business
Anita Roddick
Every time you buy something consider it a vote of confidence in the company that produced it.
Anita Roddick
Why should how I act in my workplace be any different from how I interact with my family at home? It's making sure the company runs on feminine principles where the major ethic is care.
Anita Roddick
Be daring. Be first. Be different.
Anita Roddick
The aging process is fascinating because it doesn't disturb me, because this is what it is supposed to be like. But I'll tell you what does - it's the lack of strength - you can't hold up suitcases and do it yourself. Loss of physical strength.
Anita Roddick
Mess with nature and it will mess right back.
Anita Roddick
I can't bear to be around people who are bland or bored or uninterested (or to employ them).
Anita Roddick
There are only two ways of making money: the hard way and the very hard way!
Anita Roddick
It's frustrating sometimes to see the mismatch in resources between the pointless and the urgent, isn't it.

Anita Roddick
a social conscience is not incompatible with profit.
Anita Roddick
A woman in advancing old age is unstoppable by any earthly force. I love it.
Anita Roddick
First, you have to have fun. Second, you have to put love where your labour is. Third, you have to go in the opposite direction to everyone else.
Anita Roddick
If civilization is going to survive, business and policy-makers must move on, to find within themselves more developed emotions than fear or greed.
Anita Roddick
Internationalism means that we can see into the dark corners of the world, and hold those companies to account when they are devastating forests or employing children as bonded labour. Globalization is the complete opposite, its rules pit country against country and workers against workers in the blinkered pursuit of international competitiveness.
Anita Roddick
There are a lot of dark sides to success, but the light side of it is the ability to be opportunistic, and to be able to do things.
Anita Roddick
If trade undermines life, narrows it or impoverishes it, then it can destroy the world. If it enhances life, then it can better the world.
Anita Roddick
We communicate with passion and passion persuades.
Anita Roddick
If you pretend that business is beyond morality, that's the kind of morality you get.
Anita Roddick
How can you ennoble the spirit when you are selling something as inconsequential as a face cream?
Anita Roddick
If you've got a partner that's supportive and you're doing something you enjoy it doesn't ever become a job or a burden. Its about community, new friendships, support mechanism.
