More quotes by Richard Branson
I just wanted to create things that I could be proud of. Money was just an evil byproduct to pay the bills at the end of the year.
Richard Branson
[If] man creates the problem, surely man can solve it.
Richard Branson
Those who achieve great things are the ones willing to be scared but not scared off. If you dream big and take risks, impossible becomes just a word.
Richard Branson
When I started Virgin from a basement in west London, there was no great plan or strategy. I didn't set out to build a business empire ... For me, building a business is all about doing something to be proud of, bringing talented people together and creating something that's going to make a real difference to other people's lives.
Richard Branson
To stand still today is to go backwards...and quickly...!
Richard Branson
Companies need to have a lot more flexibility with their people... . If somebody wants to golf around the world for two months, okay, well, maybe on an unpaid basis, let them do it. That sort of flexibility I think is incredibly important because most of our time, we spend at work.
Richard Branson
The most important thing for entrepreneurs is not to be put off by failure.
Richard Branson
I've been very lucky. I come from a very close family. I'm also in a relationship that's been really good. Lasted a long time. We've got wonderful kids from that relationship, and they've had the benefit of being together. It's fantastic to have that sort of togetherness. It's a rarity these days.
Richard Branson
Flowers flourish when they're watered, and shrivel up when they're not. People are no different. The best leaders are the ones who look for the best in people.
Richard Branson
My biggest motivation? Just to keep challenging myself
Richard Branson
I never learned the rules in the first place. To change the game is at the heart of what Virgin stands for, so the company culture has always been: Don't sweat it: rules were meant to be broken.
Richard Branson
I have always believed that there is no point in having regrets as you learn far more from mistakes than successes. Embrace a mistake and learn from it don't regret them.
Richard Branson
Red tape will often get in your way. It's one of the reasons I often carry scissors!
Richard Branson
I just love every minute of my life. I love the variety. Every minute of every day I'm meeting fascinating new people, learning and working with wonderful teams of people creating wonderful things.
Richard Branson
I was the kind of entrepreneur that never really felt I made it. When Mike Olefield's Tubular Bells [Virgin Records' first release] sold 8 or 10 million copies, I suppose, at age 19, I could've possibly retired on the money. Instead, I immediately pushed the boat and took that risk again.
Richard Branson
THERE'S NO OTHER WAY to find out whether or not you'll be successful other than just doing it
Richard Branson
Don’t just play the game – change it for good.
Richard Branson
I am passionate about many things but conserving our planet and its species is a high priority of mine.
Richard Branson
The Virgin brand is not a product like Coca-Cola or Famous Grouse whisky. it's an attitude and a way of life to many. That attitude is about giving customers a better time and better value in a fun way that embraces life and seeks to give the customers something new.
Richard Branson
It is only by being bold that you get anywhere. If you are a risk-taker, then the art is to protect the downside.
