More quotes by Anita Roddick
Consumers have not been told effectively enough that they have huge power and that purchasing and shopping involve a moral choice.
Anita Roddick
I think the leadership of a company should encourage the next generation not just to follow, but to overtake.
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.

I want to define success by redefining it. For me it isn't that solely mythical definition - glamour, allure, power of wealth, and the privilege from care. Any definition of success should be personal because it's so transitory. It's about shaping my own destiny.
Anita Roddick
I have always found that my view of success has been iconoclastic: success to me is not about money or status or fame, its about finding a livelihood that brings me joy and self-sufficiency and a sense of contributing to the world.
Anita Roddick
We are honest about our methods and our mistakes. We are not perfect - it isn't possible to be perfect - but we are trying to go in the right direction and in those circumstances, it's best not to mystify what we are trying to do.
Anita Roddick

Anita Roddick
If you don't believe one person can make a difference, you have never been in bed with a mosquito.
Anita Roddick
Whatever you do, be different - that was the advice my mother gave me, and I can't think of better advice for an entrepreneur. If you're different, you will stand out.
Anita Roddick
Whatever you do, be different. If you're different, you will stand out.
Anita Roddick
My passionate belief is that business can be fun, it can be conducted with love and a powerful force for good.
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
There is no scientific answer for success. You can't define it. You've simply got to live it and do it.
Anita Roddick
I didn't go to business school, didn't care about financial stuff and the stock market.
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
I think progress is a sort of comfortable disease, and we've got a media that says entertainment and celebrity, which isn't bad in itself but it stops the real issues coming forward.
Anita Roddick
The market controls everything, but the market has no heart.
