The American people know something is wrong as far as energy is concerned. They don't think they are being told the truth.
-
It's important to understand that oil and renewables do different things. Wind and solar are for power generation, so they don't replace oil. About 70% of all oil produced is used for transportation fuel. Renewables are good projects, but they don't get us off of foreign oil.
-
I don't go cheap on anything, but I'm not a shopper. If I want something, I look at it, decide what it is, but it will usually be the best product. I've got a pair of loafers that I still wear that I got in 1957.

You want to compete, and you want to compete at the highest level.
-
Natural gas is a better transportation fuel than gasoline, so if that's the case, it's cheaper, it's cleaner and it's a domestic resource.
-
If you're on the right side of the issue, just keep driving until you hear glass breaking. Don't quit.
-
If you don't have a refinery operating, it's hard to use oil that's available.
-
We're going to have shortages and prices are going to go up. Gasoline is going to be extremely tight for us.
-
Big Oil is a club, and they'll do everything to keep me out.
-
I have always believed that it's important to show a new look periodically. Predictability can lead to failure.
-
I do believe that oil production globally has peaked at 85 million barrels. And I've been very vocal about it. And what happens? The demand continues to rise. The only way you can possibly kill demand is with price. So the price of oil, gasoline, has to go up to kill the demand. Otherwise, keep the price down, the demand rises.

Chief executives, who themselves own few shares of their companies, have no more feeling for the average stockholder than they do for baboons in Africa.
-
I've been married over 50 years of my life.
-
I'm a Republican. I don't want to go to heaven and have to face my family up there and tell them I voted for a Democrat.
-
Far too many executives have become more concerned with the 'four P's' - pay, perks, power and prestige - rather than making profits for shareholders.
-
I'm focused on energy only. And I know what I'm talking about. And I don't want to be distracted on other things.
-
Natural gas is the best transportation fuel. It's better than gasoline or diesel. It's cleaner, it's cheaper, and it's domestic. Natural gas is 97 percent domestic fuel, North America.
-
I don't believe in a price on carbon, because the government is going to control it and they're going to fail.
-
I always saw myself as a large stockholder trying to make a difference. I wasn't raiding anybody.
-
Fundamentals make the market.
-
It has become cheaper to look for oil on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange than in the ground.
-
Natural gas is better distributed than any other fuel in the United States. It's down every street and up every alley. There's a pipeline.
-
I say, you work eight hours, and you sleep eight hours - be sure they're not the same eight hours.
-
You can't invest in natural gas on a daily basis. It's too volatile. But if you think of natural gas as a long-term holding, then you push your profit horizon out. A long-term time horizon would be at least two years.
