More quotes by Ted Turner
I didn't care what, how much adversity life threw at me. I intended to get to the top.
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 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
There's nothing wrong with being fired.
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
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 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 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
I'm just a socialist at heart.
Ted Turner
If there is a God, he is not doing a good job of protecting the earth. He's kind of checked out.
Ted Turner
The U.N. had such lofty goals to eliminate poverty and stop war and cure diseases and help refugees - things that no one country could do.
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
Basically we are chimpanzees with about two percent more intelligence and a little less hair.
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
I wanted to better inform the world.
Ted Turner
I think Captain Cousteau might be the father of the environmental movement.
Ted Turner
I was gonna go broke if I didn't get things turned around real fast.
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
