More quotes by Ted Turner

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
Even when I started in 1970, I knew that television was having a negative effect on our society.
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
Music has a great power for bringing people together. With so many forces in this world acting to drive wedges between people, it's important to preserve those things that help us experience our common humanity.
Ted Turner

Ted Turner

Ted Turner
I didn't care what, how much adversity life threw at me. I intended to get to the top.
Ted Turner
Struggling hard to achieve something is the most fun I get.
Ted Turner

Ted Turner
John is very aware of the responsibilities that come with being a landowner. I also feel that way. We both see landownership as a personal investment, but also an opportunity to contribute to the well-being of our planet and its inhabitants.
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
The whole idea of television news or any kind of news is to inform people about things they need to know about.
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 mind is just another muscle.
Ted Turner
Most of the people will have died and the rest of us will be cannibals.
Ted Turner
There are too many people, that's why we have global warming. We have global warming because too many people are using too much stuff.
Ted Turner
