Quotes

My worry about the New York Times is that it's got the only position as a national elitist general-interest paper. So the network news picks up its cues from the Times. And local papers do too. It has a huge influence. And we'd love to challenge it. Rupert Murdoch
So long as I can stay mentally alert - inquiring, curious - I want to keep going. I love my wife and my children, but I don't want to sit around at home with them. We go on safaris and things like that. I can do that for a couple of weeks a year. I'm just not ready to stop, to die. Rupert Murdoch
I can go into restaurants and a whole table will get up and clap if they recognize me, because they love Fox News. Other places - or even the same place - people will turn the other way. Rupert Murdoch
In motivating people, you've got to engage their minds and their hearts. I motivate people, I hope, by example - and perhaps by excitement, by having productive ideas to make others feel involved. Rupert Murdoch
Rupert Murdoch quote: "Money is not the motivating force. It's nice to have money,..."
Money is not the motivating force. It's nice to have money, but I don't live high. What I enjoy is running the business. Rupert Murdoch
I'm considered homophobic and crazy about these things and old fashioned. But I think that the family - father, mother, children - is fundamental to our civilisation. Rupert Murdoch
I'm a strange mixture of my mother's curiosity; my father, who grew up the son of the manse in a Presbyterian family, who had a tremendous sense of duty and responsibility; and my mother's father, who was always in trouble with gambling debts. Rupert Murdoch
No one's going to be able to operate without a grounding in the basic sciences. Language would be helpful, although English is becoming increasingly international. And travel. You have to have a global attitude. Rupert Murdoch
I feel that people I trusted - I don't know who, on what level - have let me down, and I think they have behaved disgracefully, and it's for them to pay. And I think, frankly, that I'm the best person to see it through. Rupert Murdoch
I'm a catalyst for change. You can't be an outsider and be successful over 30 years without leaving a certain amount of scar tissue around the place. Rupert Murdoch
Somebody talked me into writing an autobiography about six or seven years ago. And I said I'd try. We talked into a tape recorder, and after a couple of months, I said, To hell with it. I was so depressed. It was like saying, 'This is the end.' I was more interested in what the hell was coming the next day or the next week. Rupert Murdoch
Rupert Murdoch quote: "I would like to be remembered, if I am remembered at all, as..."
I would like to be remembered, if I am remembered at all, as being a catalyst for change in the world, change for good. Rupert Murdoch
Rupert Murdoch quote: "I felt that it's best just to be as transparent as possible."
I felt that it's best just to be as transparent as possible. Rupert Murdoch
If the head man in a company is not working 12 hours a day, doing things, taking risks, but also standing with his people in the trenches at the most difficult of times, then the company loses something. Rupert Murdoch
Rupert Murdoch quote: "The world is changing very fast. Big will not beat small..."
The world is changing very fast. Big will not beat small anymore. It will be the fast beating the slow. Rupert Murdoch
