Whoever acts with respect will get respect.
I have found out one thing and that is, if you have an idea, and it is a good idea, if you only stick to it you will come out all right.
Africa is still lying ready for us, it is our duty to take it. It is our duty to seize every opportunity of acquiring more territory and we should keep this one idea steadily before our eyes: that more territory simply means more of the Anglo-Saxon race, more of the best, the most human, most honorable race the world possesses
I contend that we are the finest race in the world and that the more of the world we inhabit, the better it is for the human race. Just fancy those parts that are at present inhabited by the most despicable specimens of human beings what an alteration there would be if they were brought under Anglo-Saxon influence, look again at the extra employment a new country added to our dominions gives.
I contend that we are the first race in the world, and that the more of the world we inhabit the better it is for the human race. . . If there be a God, I think that what he would like me to do is paint as much of the map of Africa British Red as possible.

One night, I was chatting with a group of 16-year-old girls over a few drinks about a name for the record store. . . A bunch of ideas were bounced around, then, as we were all new to business, someone suggested Virgin. It smacked of new and fresh and at the time the word was still slightly risqué, so, thinking it would be an attention-grabber, we went with it.
We can never know who or what we are till we know at least something of what God is.
