Every single astronaut who has come back from space comes back determined to do more to protect it.
Richard Branson
And [we hope to sell] the clean fuels to other airlines. I mean, the exciting thing about the breakthrough with clean fuels for the airline industry is there's only 1,700 pumps in the world that fill up the airlines.
Richard Branson
Take a chance - it's the best way to test yourself, have fund and push boundaries.
Richard Branson
Space is hard - but worth it. We will persevere and move forward together.

Richard Branson
My people are at the core of everything I do, and I recognize the importance of giving them the flexibility to balance work around their personal lives.
Richard Branson
To succeed in business you need to be original, but you also need to understand what your customers want.
Richard Branson
To be successful, you have to be out there, you have to hit the ground running, and if you have a good team around you and more than a fair share of luck, you might make something happen. But you certainly can't guarantee it just by following someone else's formula.
Richard Branson
I learnt from an early age this need to delegate responsibility out to other team members as there is just too much for one person to do themselves. What is the point of hiring talented team members if you don't give them the freedom to make the most of the chance you have given them?
Richard Branson
Please be polite. Nothing in life should erode the habit of saying thank you to people or praising them.
Richard Branson
I think that not relying too heavily on one bank and one bank manager is a good rule to learn.
Richard Branson
There are some nasty, nasty incidents taking place in the world, but [it's] much better than it used to be.
Richard Branson
Learning and leadership go together. Too much credit goes to me for what we have achieved at Virgin but the successes happen from working and learning with some of the world's most inspiring and inspired people.
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 learnt so much over my 40 years of business which would have been valuable to me when I was younger.
Richard Branson
You've got one go in life, so make the most of it.
Richard Branson
We have the enormous opportunity in our hands to make a positive difference for business, people, and the planet.
Richard Branson
I'd like to see the government back a programme of research into the medical properties of cannabis and I do not object to its responsible use as a recreational relaxant.
Richard Branson
Money gives you the freedom to do with your time what you want to do with it
