“Ohne Hast, aber ohne Rast. - Without haste, but without rest.”
“Ohne Konzentration kann nichts in dieser Welt vollständig verwirklicht werden, sei es nun in unseren Geschäften, unserem Beruf oder in unserer spirituellen Arbeit. Wer in den eigenen Angelegenheiten oder im Beruf keinen Erfolg hat, kann sich nicht richtig konzentrieren. Viele, die Erfolg im Leben haben, verdanken dies der Tatsache, dass sie über eine gute Konzentration verfügen. Und vielleicht wissen sie das nicht einmal. Im Westen gab es viele große Erfinder, die wunderbare Dinge geschaffen haben, doch sie selbst wussten nicht, dass sie dies ihrer Konzentrationsfähigkeit zu verdanken hatten. Manche werden mit ihr als natürlicher Gabe geboren, und deshalb bringen sie alles, was auch immer sie unternehmen, zum Erfolg. Künstler können mithilfe der Konzentration wunderschöne Werke schaffen. Wissenschaftlerinnen können dadurch großartige wissenschaftliche Ergebnisse erzielen. Poeten gehen damit mühelos der Dichtkunst nach. Für Mystikerinnen wird die mystische Inspiration fließen. Ohne Konzentration jedoch sind wir nicht fähig, unsere Gaben zu nutzen, egal wie begabt wir sind. Wir können dann kaum als begabt angesehen werden. Nur durch die Kraft der Konzentration können wir uns vollständig ausdrücken. (S. 158)”

“Oho, now I know what you are. You are an advocate of Useful Knowledge.... Well, allow me to introduce myself to you as an advocate of Ornamental Knowledge. You like the mind to be a neat machine, equipped to work efficiently, if narrowly, and with no extra bits or useless parts. I like the mind to be a dustbin of scraps of brilliant fabric, odd gems, worthless but fascinating curiosities, tinsel, quaint bits of carving, and a reasonable amount of healthy dirt. Shake the machine and it goes out of order; shake the dustbin and it adjusts itself beautifully to its new position.”

“Oil and coal? Of course, it's a fungible commodity and they don't flag, you know, the molecules, where it's going and where it's not [...]. So, I believe that what Congress is going to do, also, is not to allow the export bans to such a degree that it's Americans that get stuck to holding the bag without the energy source that is produced here, pumped here.”
“Oil and Water, Daddy calls us. At four years younger than me, Katie is only fourteen and she already has half the boys in town eating from her pretty little hand. She tells me I am too tall and too wicked looking to capture the heart of any sensible young man.”

“Oil is a special case. Saudi Arabia is trying to drive U.S. fracking rivals out of business, while also hurting Russia. This lowers gas prices for U.S. and Eurozone consumers, but not by enough to spur economic recovery.”
“Oil is a tangible commodity, so there is a global market. The fact that we may need less may affect the global price because we're big consumers: we probably take about a quarter of global demand. But if suddenly, let's just use a crazy example, fighting in the Middle East led to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and no oil could get out through the Strait of Hormuz, well that would affect China, India, Europe, it will affect the whole global economy. It will affect us, too, then.”
“Oil is a very important component of economic growth.”
“Oil is a very valuable resource for life - electric heaters. We must have to transition ourselves to a post-oil era. And that's what we must discuss: searching and developing new sources of energy.

“Oil is essential for a modern, industrial society. It's unique, first of all, because it's the primary source, at 40 percent, of the world's entire supply of energy, and it's irreplaceable in the transportation field; it provides 98 percent of world transportation energy.”

“Oil now, as a result of the Saudi production, is priced so low that there are not going to be new fracking investments made. A lot of companies that have gone into fracking are heavily debt-leveraged, and are beginning to default on their loans. The next wave of defaults that banks are talking about is probably going to be in the fracking industry. When the costs of production are so much more than they can end up getting for the oil, they just stop producing and stop paying their loans.”

''..She felt like a character in a no-name oil painting, drawn by an unknown artist, describing sadness, regret and defeat. She pictured that painting in her mind, and this time lay down on her bed as if taking her place in that painting. It was not strange for her that a character that had been out of place for a long time was now re-entering there. On the contrary, by inhaling the scent of oil painting, Melisa plunged into resignation, as if she had found her place and even what she deserved...'

Imagine if they were 10 times as big. Imagine if they were modular and could move about and you could choose the neighbours you wanted to live with.”
“Oil policy, policy toward the United States, policy toward Iran, Bahrain, Yemen, very unlikely, I think, to see significant change. These policies were the policies that had a wide family consensus. The question I think would be if the king becomes sick, whether you have weak Saudi leadership in the Arab world and the Middle East rather than strong Saudi leadership, but I think the fundamental policies will continue, the ones we’re familiar with under King Abdullah.”
“Oil prices have certainly become a threat for the world economy.”
