More quotes by Ted Turner
I think Captain Cousteau might be the father of the environmental movement.
Ted Turner
The sad thing about destroying the environment is that we're going to take the rest of life with us. The bluebirds will be gone, and the elephants will be gone, and the tigers will be gone, and the pandas will be gone.
Ted Turner
Life is a game. Money is how we keep score.
Ted Turner
CNN anchor Gwen Scott claimed it is common knowledge that Turner sits in his office and smokes marijuana.
Ted Turner
I like something with 'vice' in it.
Ted Turner
The United States has got some of the dumbest people in the world. I want you to know that we know that.
Ted Turner
I mean, there's no point in sittin' around and cryin' about spilt milk. Gotta move on.
Ted Turner
The world and life have been mighty good to me. And I want to put something back.
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
I love this planet I want to see the environment preserved and I want to see the human race preserved. And I'd like to see everybody living decently in a more equitable, kind-hearted, thoughtful, generous world.
Ted Turner
I didn't care what, how much adversity life threw at me. I intended to get to the top.
Ted Turner
We have to do more than keep media giants from growing larger they're already too big. We need a new set of rules that will break these huge companies to pieces.
Ted Turner
I'm a very good thinker, but I sometimes grab the wrong word. I say something I didn't think through adequately. I mean, I don't type my speeches, then sit up there and read them off the teleprompter, you know. I wing it.
Ted Turner
I like Obama. I don't know who could do a better job. He's got an incredibly tough situation, and a good heart and mind. I'd like to see him rally support a little better.
Ted Turner
We're too many people that's why we have global warming...on a voluntary basis, everybody in the world's got to pledge to themselves that one child is it.
Ted Turner
Man should be judged by the deeds done to help his fellow man.
Ted Turner
Over a three year period, I gave away half of what I had. To be honest, my hands shook as I signed it away. I knew I was taking myself out of the race to be the richest man in the world.
Ted Turner
The biggest thing I learned from losing? Winning's better.
Ted Turner
I had more energy at 50. On the other hand, at 75, I've probably got a little more wisdom and good judgment than I had at 50 because I've got more experience. But I haven't really changed. I'm still driven by the same philosophy.
Ted Turner
I'm no genius. I'm not at all I just happen to look five or 10 years ahead and think things through.
Ted Turner
