More From Richard Branson
- "I love the freedom of movement that my phone gives me. That has definitely transformed my life."
- "A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts."
- "Well, I think that there’s a very thin dividing line between success and failure. And I think if you start a business without financial backing, you’re likely to go the wrong side of that dividing line."

- "Only the dead have seen the end of war."― Plato
- "This is an important book, the critic assumes, because it deals with war. This is an insignificant book because it deals with the feelings of women in a drawing-room."― Virginia Woolf
- "When I left to go into apprenticeship in 1949, it was only four years after the war, and people don’t realize, we still had tickets for butter, meat and so forth in France until 1947. It’s not like the end of the war, everything was plentiful – it wasn’t."― Jacques Pepin
