More quotes by Ted Turner
Man should be judged by the deeds done to help his fellow man.
Ted Turner
I like something with 'vice' in it.
Ted Turner
If I sold all my liabilities, I wouldn't own anything. My wife's a liability, my kids are liabilities, and I haven't sold them.
Ted Turner
I see the whole field of environmentalis m and population as nothing more than the survival of the human species. I have wanted to have some bumper sticker made up saying 'Save the Humans'. At the bottom of it all, we are trying to save ourselves.
Ted Turner
The word impossible does not exist for me. I've got a lot of signal flags in my flag bag, but there is not a white one in there. I am going to keep fighting until the day I die - and might keep on fighting afterward ... depends on where I am.
Ted Turner
I travel a lot. I'm on the move.
Ted Turner

I think we've already voted at the U.N., in the Security Council, to get rid of nuclear weapons. Let's get rid of them. Let's get rid of ours and then Iran will stop, I believe. And so everybody else will, because if everybody doesn't have them, then we're safe, at least safe from a nuclear attack.
Ted Turner
Women? I love women. Life would have been virtually zero without them. Journalism? I really feel like I am a journalist... And courage? I had a boat named Courageous.
Ted Turner
I just love it when people say I can't do something. There's nothing that makes me feel better, because all my life people have said I wasn't going to make it.
Ted Turner
We must go through a natural revolution if we are to survive on earth. We need to change people's perceptions. If there's no environment, there's no human race. We are in a state of global denial.
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
You can never quit. Winners never quit, and quitters never win.
Ted Turner
Be sure to set your goals so high that you can't possibly accomplish them in one lifetime. That way you'll always have something ahead of you. I made the mistake of setting my goals too low, and now I'm having a hard time coming up with new ones.
Ted Turner
Many times through the ages, like as not the chance appears, but because of indecision, man's fond hopes are drowned in tears.
Ted Turner
Life is a game. Money is how we keep score.
Ted Turner
Men should be disqualified for public office. Women should run the planet. They're better than us.
Ted Turner
The biggest thing I learned from losing? Winning's better.
Ted Turner
I was gonna go broke if I didn't get things turned around real fast.
