Why would I spend $5 billion for something in order to wreck it?

I think we've been an agent for change, everywhere, and I think change frightens people. They're going nicely in what seems like a settled industry, and someone comes in and says "I can do this better. It doesn't matter how nice that other one is." That's one of the distinguishing points of our acquisitions.

If you want to judge my thinking, look at The Sun.

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.

Successful workers will be those who embrace a lifetime of learning. Those who don't will be left behind.

I am amazed that CNN can't get its act together.

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.
