More quotes by Richard Branson
If you don’t enjoy it, don’t do it. You must love what you do.
Richard Branson
I have always lived my life by making lists: lists of people to call, lists of ideas, lists of companies to set up, lists of people who can make things happen. Each day I work through these lists, and that sequence of calls propels me forward.
Richard Branson
We must rapidly wean ourselves off our dependence on coal and fossil fuels.
Richard Branson

Richard Branson
I am prepared to try anything once.
Richard Branson
I was born under a lucky star, and I have nothing whatsoever to regret. I wouldn't change a thing about my life.
Richard Branson
Have fun, work hard and money will come. Don't waste time - grab your chances. Have a positive outlook on life. When it's not fun, move on.
Richard Branson
If family or friends are unwell or ill - it's perhaps the only thing that really can make one feel vulnerable.
Richard Branson
We have a business that some people feel pollutes, and I happen to agree with them. ... And so on the basis of trying to do good and, you know, hopefully turn a profit, what we did was we pledged that we'd put all the profits from our airline business into trying to develop clean fuels.
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
Entrepreneurial business favours the open mind. It favours people whose optimism drives them to prepare for many possible futures, pretty much purely for the joy of doing so.
