Clearly, the Chinese need the resources, but I don't think they want to clash with the industrial world which happens to be the market for their goods.

The starting point for energy security today as it has always been is diversification of supplies and sources.

The bulk of extra supplies that could be put into the market come from two places. One, they come from other Persian Gulf suppliers, of which Saudi Arabia is at the top of the list.

We are living in a new age of energy supply anxiety.

Cycles of shortage and surplus characterize the entire history of oil.

We experienced similiar fears in the 1880s, at the end of World War I and II. And we ran out in the 1970s.

So the major obstacle to the development of new supplies is not geology but what happens above ground: international affairs, politics, investment and technology.

To meet the energy challenge requires the most important energy of all - human creativity. That's the real prize.

People always underestimate the impact of technology. To give you an example: In the 1970s the frontier for offshore development was 200 meters, today it is 4,000 meters.

A premium in the oil price of somewhere between 10 to 15 dollars a barrel reflects this heightened anxiety.

But eventually it's a question of access: Getting access to fields is on top of the oil companies' agenda. We see a substantial build-up of supply occurring over the coming years.

I guess that's what saying good-bye is always like--like jumping off an edge. The worst part is making the choice to do it. Once you're in the air, there's nothing you can do but let go.

Deep in the culture of Apple is this sense and understanding of design, developing, and making. Form and the material and process - they are beautifully intertwined - completely connected.

In America they like my spicy TV alter ego, probably because there were a lot of Italians and Hispanics in the country, but the real L.A. life is a hard-working one.

I will put on my shoes and shirt and get out of here - it'll be better for all of us.

We keep this love in a photograph We made these memories for ourselves Where our eyes are never closing Hearts are never broken And time's forever frozen still

Yes, of course we were pretentious -- what else is youth for?

But then you begin to understand that the reward of merit is not life’s business.

Treat each other the way you would like to be treated.

I will remain active in judo.
