How to turn off VoiceOver?

The VoiceOver is turned on and I can't turn it off. I tried to triple-click home to turn it off but it does not work. At first I could not select settings. It tells me what it is and to double click it to open it but it does not open. Finally, I'm in settings now and when I select general it does not give me to topics to turn it off. Any suggestions to resolve my problem?
