Ted Turner

Ted Turner
I'm a millionaire, I guess, but I'm just a normal person and I like everybody, taxi drivers, whoever you are, to call me by my first name and talk to me on a man-to-man basis. I think the garbage collector is as important as the goddamned president.
Ted Turner
If you never quit, you're never beaten.
Ted Turner
I've never run into a guy who could win at the top level in anything today and didn't have the right attitude, didn't give it everything he had, at least while he was doing it wasn't prepared and didn't have the whole program worked out.
Ted Turner
I regret that I wasn't more successful with my marriages, but it is what it is.
Ted Turner
