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
Virgin could never have grown into the group of more than 200 companies it is now, were it not for a steady stream of intrapreneurs who looked for and developed opportunities, often leading efforts that went against the grain.
Richard Branson
You can never go too far wrong by thinking like a customer who’s new to the business.
Richard Branson
I've used the Phoenix Centrifuge to replicate what the body's going to go through on the flight up. I've also done some gravity tests with ZERO-G [a charter-flight service in Arlington, Va., that uses modified Boeing 727s to simulate weightlessness], which went great.

I don't live my life thinking about if only. I just try to think positively about the future. We'll never know for certain what would have happened if we'd gone to Iraq. The important thing is that we've got to do everything we can to prevent other wars.
Richard Branson
Always think, 'what's the worst that can happen' and have some kind of strategy to deal with it
Richard Branson

Richard Branson
And ever since then [I] have set up businesses basically out of frustration. I mean, I set up Virgin Atlantic with one second-hand 747 because I hated the experience of flying on other people's airlines. And I thought, you know, I could try to create the kind of airline that I'd like to fly on. And people liked it.
Richard Branson
Exploration is a wonderful way to open our eyes to the world, & to truly see that impossible is just a word.
Richard Branson
Put your passions to work to make this world a better place.
Richard Branson
I am a great believer that you need passion and energy to create a truly successful business.
Richard Branson
Age isn't as important so long as you are surrounded by people you love, doing things you passionately believe in.
Richard Branson
Please don’t get hung up on this question of whether you need to have experience in an industry before you launch your startup.
Richard Branson
Capitalism has never stood back and examined itself properly. I think everybody knows that capitalism is the only thing that works, but is the current form of capitalism the best way of it working?
Richard Branson
Loyal employees in any company create loyal customers, who in turn create happy shareholders.
Richard Branson
Have faith in yourself. Think yes not no. Live life to the full. Never give up.
Richard Branson
People do not mind people who try things and fail. If you're a good entrepreneur, you're not going to succeed in every single thing you try. You've got to try to succeed at more things than fail.
Richard Branson
And obviously, from our own personal point of view, the principal challenge is a personal challenge.
