"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
About this Quote

He was at first talked into composing one, however after a number of months of taping his life story into a tape recorder, he felt overloaded and depressed. He was more interested in what the future held than in assessing the past. This recommends that Murdoch is a forward-thinking person who is more thinking about what lies ahead than in dwelling on the past. He was unable to finish the autobiography, likely due to the fact that he was more concentrated on the present and future than on the past. This quote talks to Murdoch's aspiration and drive, as well as his choice for looking ahead rather than reviewing the past.
