More quotes by 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.

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

Ted Turner

Ted Turner
If you think you're a second-class citizen, you are.
Ted Turner
If you never quit, you're never beaten.
Ted Turner

Ted Turner
Life is a game. Money is how we keep score.
Ted Turner
I'm 68 and a half years old I grew up with newspapers I love newspapers I love the news business. I started CNN I'm a journalist and proud of 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
Hell, we spent $200 Billion to get a scared guy who needed a shave out of a fox-hole! And he may even die of prostate cancer before we even get a chance to try him, dammit!
Ted Turner
The chance for mistakes is about equal to the number of crew squared.
