I think I've learned that if you have a house, you end up living in the kitchen, so if you have one big kitchen and then enough bedrooms for your family, that's about all you need for a home.

More quotes by Richard Branson
The quickest way to become a millionaire in the airline business is to start out as a billionaire.
Richard Branson
India is an incredibly vibrant market, which Virgin already, through Virgin Atlantic, has the pleasure of working in. I am delighted that Virgin Comics will not only help to launch the Indian comic market and spin it into the West, but will develop new and exciting talent.
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
Through the right people focusing on the right things, we can, in time, get on top of a lot if not most of the problems of this world. And that's what a number of us are trying to do.
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 am constantly pushing myself and my own expectations and have always found that I've always come out better for it. Fear is human nature, but turning fear into opportunity is what will make a difference. I would much rather look back at my life saying I can't believe I did that, than, What if I had done that?
Richard Branson
Always think, 'what's the worst that can happen' and have some kind of strategy to deal with it
Richard Branson
Surprisingly, a large number of people who fell out with their partners contacted us, saying that they would love to fly on a Virgle spaceship. But out of April Fools' jokes come real things, and I wouldn't be surprised, within the next 50 years, [if] there are one-way trips heading out into space with people on it. It would be very exciting.
Richard Branson
Take the competition seriously, but not yourself.
Richard Branson
Remember the to-do list but don't forget the to-be list.
Richard Branson
I think business needs to have a heart and to have a heart a company must be more than just a moneymaking machine.
Richard Branson
Too many companies want their brands to reflect some idealised, perfected image of themselves. As a consequence, their brands acquire no texture, no character and no public trust.
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
It's never easy to set up any business, but it comes back to determination and drive and the love of what you do!
Richard Branson
When you are making a decision about how best to serve your customers, your own experience is often a better guide than a more sophisticated analysis of the market.
Richard Branson
Every single astronaut who has come back from space comes back determined to do more to protect it.
Richard Branson
The risk is worth it. Mike would have been the first to say that.
Richard Branson
Half the art of ballooning is to make your crashes so gentle that you can fool yourself into calling them landings.
Richard Branson
Ideally, since 80 percent of your life is spent working, you should start your business around something that is a passion of yours
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.
