However small a company, its founders should try to expand people's opportunities and choices.

Rather than getting nostalgic...embrace the new opportunities and challenges available to you now.

If you're looking to become an entrepreneur then don't waste your time going to university or business school - just get on and do it.

What is a business? It's simply an idea that makes someone else's life better

And ever since then [I] have set up businesses basically out of frustration.

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.

I think business leaders all over the world should not just think of how we can make lots of money, which is fine, but to take some of the problems in the world and get out there and tackle them using business. I think that if businesses do that we can get on top of these problems.
