The American people know something is wrong as far as energy is concerned. They don't think they are being told the truth.

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.

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.

Big Oil is a club, and they'll do everything to keep me out.
-
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 don't have a refinery operating, it's hard to use oil that's available.
-
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.
-
I have always believed that it's important to show a new look periodically. Predictability can lead to failure.
-
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.

We're going to have shortages and prices are going to go up. Gasoline is going to be extremely tight for us.
-
It has become cheaper to look for oil on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange than in the ground.

Fundamentals make the market.
-
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 don't believe in a price on carbon, because the government is going to control it and they're going to fail.
-
There is no free market for oil.
-
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.
-
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.
-
I've been married over 50 years of my life.
-
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.
-
There's no question that tar sands in Canada are probably the largest source of oil available to the U.S. over a long period of time. There's as much oil in the tar sands probably as there is in Saudi Arabia. The problem is, there's a huge capital requirement to develop that.

I always saw myself as a large stockholder trying to make a difference. I wasn't raiding anybody.
-
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.
-
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.
