When you live in a watershed area, in a pristine area, and you could watch this whole place fall apart in front of your eyes, you don't sell your soul for a buck.

I'm a night owl, and luckily my profession supports that. The best ideas come to me in the dead of night.

I think that the world is in the middle of a huge transition that we have to make to renewable energy. We have to transition away from fossil fuels very, very quickly.

The problem is that everywhere the gas drilling industry goes, a trail of water contamination, air pollution, health concerns and betrayal of basic American civic and community values follows.

Natural gas is a bridge fuel. But it's not a bridge - it's a gangplank. It's either a bridge in space or a bridge in time. The bridge in time we don't need. We have renewable technology right now.

When you're cornered, there are two things you can do: move or fight.

We are letting the extractive energy industries turn the world inside out.

I think 'Gasland' is the doorway for a lot of people to see something happening in their backyard and realize the national and global implications.

I think we're in an era of unprecedented dominance by corporations. I think people understand that deeply; I don't think that's even questioned.

We're not living in a society that science actually dominates the conversation. We're living in a situation where some science is allowed and a lot of it's about policy.

We should be moving vigorously towards renewable energy. The technology of which is right here right now.

Huh. What a dope! Wait till Mom hears about this. He's so in trouble now. You know how crazy she gets about malaria.

Communication is a skill that you can learn. It's like riding a bicycle or typing. If you're willing to work at it, you can rapidly improve the quality of evry part of your life.

I'm not here for a long time. I'm here for a short time

Our goal must be not peace in our time, but peace for all time.

I've written probably over 200 songs that have a verse and a chorus and that's it.

Installing a new offense is harder than a new defense. It just takes time.

If I had the flag that Betsy Ross worked so hard on, I wouldn't destroy it. I'd put it up on EBay because it's gotta be worth some serious coin. And that is the American way.

Our senses through ignorance of Reality, falsely tell us that what appears to be, is. FEAR = False Evidence Appearing Real

I will attract into my life what I am, not what I want.
