It has the ugliness of a trapped rat, which gnaws its own foot in an effort to escape. ~Angus Wilson

Good people have always been at the heart of the Virgin business, and that is largely because we have tried to keep our business small, and our management teams tight-knit. I feel that small, compact companies, are better run. That is partly because people feel more connected in small companies. ~Richard Branson
