The idea that business is strictly a numbers affair has always struck me as preposterous.

Richard Branson

I find it very difficult to think of mistakes not that I don't make any but because I was brought up to look only at the good things in life ... As for what lost the most money, probably Virgin Cola. It is still No 1 in Bangladesh though.

I myself have benefited from many mentors throughout my life.

The funny thing is people won't let me pay for things. I'll be in a restaurant and the manager will say, 'Oh no, it's on the house.'
