Quotes

 * "I don't think empowerment is about 'OK, so you've got one deal, you've made your first million so thank you, we've empowered you, goodbye. I think that if you watch the more financially mature societies like the white society in South Africa, in business papers you read everyday repeatedly of deals being done that are financed and are being done by people who already are very wealthy."*
 * "I think that if we want true equality it's not about just allowing people to enter an industry. It's also about allowing people who have been able to get ahead in other industries and maybe want to grow into other industries to be able to do that and that's how we'll get equality and true levelling of the playing field"*
 * by Verashni Pillay

 * "There is power in having a vision, but it has to be articulated and be made a reality."*

 * "The saddest thing is to die with your dreams inside you, never having pursued them. I think a lot of regrets come from not having done things we were meant to do.

So no matter your age, go for it."

 * Failure is a part of life, and it is especially common in the world of entrepreneurship. However, it is important to view failure as an opportunity to learn and grow. Every failure can teach you something new about yourself, your business or the market.
 * It can also help you identify areas where you need to improve. Instead of dwelling on your failures, embrace them as stepping stones to success. Use them to learn and grow, and use them to make your business stronger.
