- Once
we get comfortable as a company,
I like to push the boat out again. My wife
keeps saying, "Why?
Why? You're fifty.
Take it easy. Let's enjoy
it." But I'm in a fairly unique position.
Yesterday, the first of nine hundred new
trains arrived in the UK
and went into service. We are going to transform
Britain's rail system from the worst in
the world
to the best.
If you can do a few things like that, when
the body gives out, you can say you've lived
a good
life.
If I put all my money
in the bank
and drink myself
to death
in the Caribbean, I just think
that would be a waste of the fantastic position
I've found myself in.
Richard
Branson Quotes
- I
was trouble
- and always in trouble. Aged
eight I still couldn't read.
In fact, I was dyslexic and short-sighted.
Despite sitting at the front of the class,
I couldn't read the blackboard. Only after
a couple of terms did anyone think to have
my eyes tested. Even when I could see, the
letters and numbers made no sense at all.
Richard
Branson Quotes
- The
face you have at age
25 is the face God
gave you, but the face you have after 50
is the face you earned.
Cindy
Crawford Quotes
- I'm
very active
so I feel
happy,
peaceful
and centred when I'm travelling
somewhere, flying or trekking I'm sure I'll
find a kind of peace, probably with age.
Angelina
Jolie Quotes
- If
one day I have a daughter
and my daughter wants to be a model,
I would never let her! But then, if she
wants to, what can I do? But definitely
not until she's 18
years old. You know,
every work
has the bad
side, and people
will be mean to you, and when you're young,
you don't know how to defend yourself.
Adriana
Lima Quotes
- I´ve
started
to notice in the last few months that the
roles
available to women
in their thirties
suddenly seem a lot better than the ones
for women in their mid- to late-twenties.
Which makes sense. Women have got more to
say at this point in their lives.
They´ve had a decade of getting to
know themselves,
of making mistakes,
reflecting back to failed
relationships,
having children,
all those things, and as a result,
the characters, the roles, become much more
interesting,
more dynamic.
Naomi
Watts Quotes
- Instead
of thinking
'how can I slow the ageing
process?' I think 'how can I bend the rules?
